A new criterion for locating the expansion center of circular harmonic filters is presented. The innovation consists in the use of the information provided by both the circular harmonic energy map and the peak to correlation energy map of the object to be detected. The choice of an expansion center with a high value of peak to correlation energy ensures a good discrimination capability of the filter. In addition, we choose a point which is a local maximum for the energy map. An improvement of the discrimination ability is obtained with respect to previous methods.
