Recently, an innovative matrix CFAR detection scheme based on information geometry, also referred to as the geometric detector, has been developed speedily and exhibits distinct advantages in several practical applications. These advantages benefit from the geometry of the Toeplitz Hermitian positive definite (HPD) manifold $\mathcal{M}_{\mathcal{T}H_{++}}$, but the sophisticated geometry also results in some challenges for geometric detectors, such as the implementation of the enhanced detector to improve the SCR (signal-to-clutter ratio) and the analysis of the detection performance. To meet these challenges, this paper develops the dual power spectrum manifold $\mathcal{M}_{\text{P}}$ as the dual space of $\mathcal{M}_{\mathcal{T}H_{++}}$. For each affine invariant geometric measure on $\mathcal{M}_{\mathcal{T}H_{++}}$, we show that there exists an equivalent function named induced potential function on $\mathcal{M}_{\text{P}}$. By the induced potential function, the measurements of the dissimilarity between two matrices can be implemented on $\mathcal{M}_{\text{P}}$, and the geometric detectors can be reformulated as the form related to the power spectrum. The induced potential function leads to two contributions: 1) The enhancement of the geometric detector, which is formulated as an optimization problem concerning $\mathcal{M}_{\mathcal{T}H_{++}}$, is transformed to an equivalent and simpler optimization on $\mathcal{M}_{\text{P}}$. In the presented example of the enhancement, the closed-form solution, instead of the gradient descent method, is provided through the equivalent optimization. 2) The detection performance is analyzed based on $\mathcal{M}_{\text{P}}$, and the advantageous characteristics, which benefit the detection performance, can be deduced by analyzing the corresponding power spectrum to the maximal point of the induced potential function.
