      Input:Echo observation signal s(n)
      Output:Target waveform s’(n)
      Step1. For the target echo signal s(n) with clutter and noise, the symmetrical wavelet basis function is used for discrete wavelet transform, and the low-frequency coefficients cj,k and the high-frequency coefficients dj,k are obtained;
      Step2. The Donoho threshold Tj of wavelet decomposition high frequency coefficients is calculated, and the wavelet coefficients larger than Tj are deleted from dj,k;
      Step3. According to the observed data, the root mean square of each segment of clutter is stored to evaluate the clutter intensity;
      Step4. According to the clutter condition, the threshold Thj is set by Eq. (13), and the coefficients less than the threshold value in the remaining wavelet decomposition high-frequency coefficients are set to zero, and is obtained;
      Step5. cj,k, s’(n) is obtained by IDWT reconstruction of .
