Computer Simulation of Synthetic Aperture Radar
نویسنده
چکیده
A computer simulation of SAR data is discussed. A method is outlined for simulating a point target that models SAR data under moderate motion of the radar platform and a wide range of incidence angles. A simple Interferometric SAR simulator is also discussed. The usefulness of the simulations is in the ability to test new algorithms in a controlled environment. The simulator allows for several degrees of freedom in the complexity of the simulation.

متن کاملMeasurements of Directional Wave Spectra by the Shuttle Synthetic Aperture Radar
During October 1984, measurements of directional ocean wave spectra in high sea states were made off the coast of Chile, near Tierra del Fuego, by a synthetic aperture radar aboard the space shuttle Challenger. Simultaneously, independent measurements of ocean wave spectra were made by a complement of airborne instruments. The results indicate that a low-altitude orbiting synthetic aperture rad...
متن کاملSpeckle Reduction in Synthetic Aperture Radar Images in Wavelet Domain Using Laplace Distribution
Speckle is a granular noise-like phenomenon which appears in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images due to coherent properties of SAR systems. The presence of speckle complicates both human and automatic analysis of SAR images. As a result, speckle reduction is an important preprocessing step for many SAR remote sensing applications. Speckle reduction can be made through multi-looking during the...
