Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a method for detecting targets emitting wavelength energy into a medium by means of entropy determination at time segments of electric reception signals of a receiver which is arranged in the medium remote from said target. In order to detect targets which emit particularly broad-band noisy low-energy signals, the time segments of the reception signals undergo linear transformation and the entropy of the reception of the transformed signals is determined and it is possible to infer upon said targets on the basis of modification of entropy in the transformed signals. Fourier analysis and/or wavelet analysis of the reception signals is carried out for linear transformation.
