“…Optimized filters [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], the incorporation of three-dimensional information [11], [12], multiple input images [13], [14], [15], pre-and post-processing [16], [17], [18], and different nonlinear techniques [19], [20], [21], [22] are suitable methods to improve the correlator performance. In this article, we concentrate on an iterative correlation technique for the detection of small objects in cluttered scenes (non-overlapping noise).…”
