In this paper, we have discussed three-type median filters(SQUARE, CROSS, X-SHAPE) that preserving edge in an original image while reducing random noise was introduced for image enhancement and edge detection on radar image. Since radar image have a number of parts of curve, we compared results produced by edge detection operater proposed for improving the parts of curve with results of using the existing edge detection methods, such as Roberts, Sobel, Prewitt, Laplacian and Kirsch.
