New Adversarial Patch Disrupts SAR Object Detection Systems

Researchers have developed a new method for creating adversarial patches that can disrupt Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) object detection systems. These patches, termed Adversarial Attenuation Patches (AAP), are designed to be physically realizable and stealthy, unlike previous digital-only attacks. The AAP method uses an energy-constrained optimization strategy and an attenuation-based deployment framework, aligning with electronic jamming mechanisms for practical application. Experiments demonstrate that AAP effectively degrades detection performance while remaining imperceptible and transferable across different models. AI

    Towards Physically Realizable Adversarial Attenuation Patch against SAR Object Detection

    arXiv:2604.00887v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Deep neural networks have demonstrated excellent performance in SAR target detection tasks but remain susceptible to adversarial attacks. Existing SAR-specific attack methods can effectively deceive detectors; however, they ofte…
