Polarimetric SAR speckle noise model
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data are affected by speckle noise, originated by the SAR system’s coherent nature. The problem of speckle noise in one-dimensional (1-D) data is already solved, as speckle has a multiplicative characteristic. SAR polarimetry represents an extension to multidimensional data by the use of polarization wave diversity. As a consequence of the existence of a correlati...
متن کاملA Review of Polarization Orientation Estimation from Polarimetric SAR Data
In this paper, we review estimation algorithms and applications of polarization orientation angle induced by terrain slopes. We develop a unified analysis of estimation algorithms based on the circular polarization covariance matrix. The concept of reflection symmetry is used to explain the soundness of the circular polarization method, and to show problems associated with other algorithms. The...
متن کاملForest Biomass Estimation using Polarimetric SAR Interferometry
Forest biomass is one of the most important parameters for global carbon stock modelling yet can only be estimated with great uncertainties. Unfortunately, conventional remote sensing techniques for the estimation of forest biomass are not able to provide estimates on a global scale. An alternative approach is based on forest height estimates from single frequency polarimetric-interferometric S...
متن کاملThe Extended Sub-look Analysis In Polarimetric SAR Data For Ship Detection
The monitoring of maritime areas with remote sensing is essential for security reasons and also for the conservation of environment. The synthetic aperture radar (SAR) can play an important role in this matter by considering the possibility of acquiring high-resolution images at nighttime and under cloud cover. Recently, the new approaches based on the sub-look analysis for preserving the infor...
متن کاملNoise Variance Estimation in Images
Figure 3: The distribution of the estimated noise in an image (Lenna) to which noise with a uniform shaped distribution is added. Also shown are the true noise distribution and the theoretically estimated distribution. The latter is obtained by convolving the (truncated) uniform function with a normal function.
