| Abstract: | An on-board mosaic sensor is staring down from a satellite to afixed point on the ground while collecting frames that contain targetsignatures and background noise. A dynamic programmingalgorithm (DPA) has been developed to optimally detect dim movingtargets that cross the sensor's field of view. The algorithm has beendescribed in Part I of this paper. Here, in Part II, we analyze thealgorithm performance and compare it with that of a simpleassembling of thresholded frames; the DPA's SNR performance isshown to be at least an order of magnitude better. |
