Compression of RADARSAT Data with Block Adaptive Wavelets

چکیده
This paper proposes a new algorithm referred to as the Wavelet Packet-based Embedded Block coding (WPEB) scheme for SAR data compression. This algorithm combines the following properties: (1) wavelet packet decomposition is adopted to exploit middle and high frequency components associated with SAR data; (2) block coding is utilized to improve DWT coefficient coding efficiency by adaptively allocating more bits to regions of importance with higher information content (e.g. more contrast, edges); (3) speckle reduction is built into the bit allocation scheme by using wavelet transform denoising. Examples are given using RADARSAT data, which show that the compression performance is better than conventional wavelet methods and visual image interpretation is acceptable at 1 bpp.

Lossless Wavelet Based Image Compression with Adaptive 2D Decomposition
2D wavelets are usually generated from 1D wavelets through the rectangular or through the square decomposition scheme. In this paper a new adaptive 2D decomposition scheme for compression related applications is presented. The adaptive 2D decomposition selects 2D wavelet functions based on the compression of the coefficients, but needs only the same number of 1D filter operations as the rectang...
متن کاملAdaptive Wavelet Estimation: A Block Thresholding And Oracle Inequality Approach
We study wavelet function estimation via the approach of block thresholding and ideal adaptation with oracle. Oracle inequalities are derived and serve as guides for the selection of smoothing parameters. Based on an oracle inequality and motivated by the data compression and localization properties of wavelets, an adaptive wavelet estimator for nonparametric regression is proposed and the opti...
متن کاملNovel Image Compression Using Multiwavelets with SPECK Algorithm
Compression is the process of representing information in a compact form so as to reduce the bit rate for transmission or storage while maintaining acceptable fidelity or data quality. Over the past decade, the success of wavelets in solving many different problems has contributed to its unprecedented popularity. For best performance in image compression, wavelet transforms require filters that...
متن کاملBlock-Based Compressive Sensing Using Soft Thresholding of Adaptive Transform Coefficients
Compressive sampling (CS) is a new technique for simultaneous sampling and compression of signals in which the sampling rate can be very small under certain conditions. Due to the limited number of samples, image reconstruction based on CS samples is a challenging task. Most of the existing CS image reconstruction methods have a high computational complexity as they are applied on the entire im...
متن کاملINTRA−ADAPTIVE MOTION−COMPENSATED LIFTED WAVELETS FOR VIDEO CODING (WedAmPO4)
This paper investigates intra−adaptive wavelets for video coding with frame−adaptive motion−compensated lifted wavelet transforms. With motion−compensated lifted wavelets, the temporal wavelet decomposition operates along motion trajectories. However, valid trajectories for efficient multi−scale filtering have a finite duration in time. This is due to well known effects like occlusions or inacc...
