A novel classification algorithm based on abnormal magnetic signals is proposed for ground moving targets which are made of ferromagnetic material. According to the effect of diverse targets on earth’s magnetism,the moving targets are detected by a magnetic sensor and classified with a simple computation method. The detection sensor is used for collecting a disturbance signal of earth magnetic field from an undetermined target. An optimum category match pattern of target signature is tested by training some statistical samples and designing a classification machine. Three ordinary targets are researched in the paper. The experimental results show that the algorithm has a low computation cost and a better sorting accuracy. This classification method can be applied to ground reconnaissance and target intrusion detection.
