The precise monitoring of solar flares holds significant scientific value for space mission safety, communication security, and space environment forecasting. The Hα line has long been utilized as a tool to extract information about the structure and dynamics of the solar chromosphere and is crucial for observing solar activities such as prominences and flares. However, ground-based Hα observations are susceptible to cloud interference, which significantly reduces data reliability and complicates the effective separation of genuine flare signals from cloud modulation effects. To address this challenge, our study proposes a dual-band brightness ratio method tailored to the SMAT configuration, leveraging synchronous observation data from the Huairou SMAT at two wavelengths (photospheric 5324 Å and chromospheric 6562.8 Å). Observational data validation demonstrates that this method can effectively characterize true chromospheric brightness variations. In real observational data, the reconstructed brightness curve successfully recovered the brightness peak of an M1.5 class flare, with the peak position aligning well with the X-ray flux peak. This method enhances the accuracy of flare monitoring under cloudy conditions for SMAT, providing a promising pathway for high-reliability ground-based solar activity observations with this telescope.
