clutter suppression ability of current algorithms is limited with of image processing [7]. Zhang et al. [9] proposed a denoising

network (DnCNN) [8] and a blind denoising model based on

BASED ON SCS-GAN
A. Structure and Principle of the SCS-GAN Model
GAN is composed of generator and discriminator. The
discriminator divides the input images into two classes (real
or fake) through supervised learning, while the generator is
trained to generate images to fool the discriminator. Through
the confrontation training of the two networks, the perfor-
mance of GAN can be improved. In this letter, the proposed
SCS-GAN consists of RAG and SCD, in which RAG can
suppress the sea clutter in the image to generate clutter-free
image, SCD can discriminate the authenticity of the generated
image and enhance the generator’s ability to suppress sea
clutter through confrontation training. The objective function
is described in the following equations:
