. Real-time ship detection using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) plays a vital role in disaster emergency and marine security. Especially the high resolution and wide swath (HRWS) SAR images, provides the advantages of high resolution and wide swath synchronously, significantly promotes the wide area ocean surveillance performance. In this study, a novel method is developed for ship target detection by using the HRWS SAR images. Firstly, an adaptive sliding window is developed to propose the suspected ship target areas, based upon the analysis of SAR backscattering intensity images. Then, backscattering intensity and texture features extracted from the training samples of manually selected ship and non-ship slice images, are used to train a support vector machine (SVM) to classify the proposed ship slice images. The approach is verified by using the Sentinl1A data working in interferometric wide swath mode. The results demonstrate the improvement performance of the proposed method over the constant false alarm rate (CFAR) method, where the classification accuracy improved from 88.5 % to 96.4 % and the false alarm rate mitigated from 11.5 % to 3.6 % compared with CFAR respectively.
