Abstract: Detection of space small moving targets in time sequence of space images is a key technique for space-based surveillance, tracking and catalog. To process the mass of multidimensional data from an optical telescope in a timely and computationally efficient fashion, an algorithm is introduced for targets detection and trace acquisition based on neighborhood binary and advanced PHT (probability hough transformation) method. Compared with MTI (moving target indicator) algorithm, the number of positive false and candidate tracks is reduced obviously. Simulation results show that the algorithm is useful for optically detecting moving targets which move in a straight path quickly across many frames of data.

Key words: small moving target, detection, probability hough transformation, trace acquisition
