In order to investigate the impact of light field high-order correlation on the tangential moving target ghost imaging, high-order background-subtracted ghost imaging theory can be applied. Some numerical simulations and experiments are carried out, and the relevant simulated images are obtained. In this study of tangential moving targets ghost imaging based on the high-order background-subtracted ghost imaging theory, the results show that the high-order correlation of the light field increases the background fluctuation noise when the reference beam order increases, and the quality of image reconstruction deteriorates. Moreover, the increase of the signal beam order has little effect on the image quality. So the best quality can be obtained by the lowest-order ghost imaging.
