Abstract
A novel method for identifying radar targets and clutter is presented. Inst ead of the traditional fractal dimension, the lacunarity, which is a high-o rder fractal feature, is used in this method. The formula for lacunarity in additive noise is also given. The experiments show that higher detection a ccuracy can be obtained by using the lacunarity feature than by using the f ractal dimension.
