High-Resolution Radar/SAR Imaging: An Experiment Design Framework Combined With Variational Analysis Regularization
نویسندگان
چکیده
The convex optimization-based descriptive experiment design regularization (DEDR) method is aggregated with the variational analysis (VA) approach for adaptive high-resolution sensing into a unified DEDR-VA framework that puts in a single optimization frame highresolution radar/SAR image formation in uncertain operational scenarios, adaptive despeckling and dynamic scene image enhancement for a variety of sensing modes. The DEDR-VA method outperforms the existing adaptive radar imaging techniques both in resolution and convergence rate. The simulation examples are incorporated to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed DEDR-VA-related imaging techniques.

متن کاملDynamic Experiment Design Regularization Approach to Adaptive Imaging with Array Radar/SAR Sensor Systems
We consider a problem of high-resolution array radar/SAR imaging formalized in terms of a nonlinear ill-posed inverse problem of nonparametric estimation of the power spatial spectrum pattern (SSP) of the random wavefield scattered from a remotely sensed scene observed through a kernel signal formation operator and contaminated with random Gaussian noise. First, the Sobolev-type solution space ...

We propose an enhanced image reconstruction method for spotlight-mode synthetic aperture radar (SAR). Our approach involves extension of feature preserving regularization techniques developed in other applications to the complex-valued SAR imaging problem. Compared to conventional image formation schemes, our approach offers increased resolvability of point-scatterers, enhancement of object sha...
متن کاملFusion of Bayesian Maximum Entropy Spectral Estimation and Variational Analysis Methods for Enhanced Radar Imaging
A new fused Bayesian maximum entropy–variational analysis (BMEVA) method for enhanced radar/synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging is addressed as required for high-resolution remote sensing (RS) imagery. The variational analysis (VA) paradigm is adapted via incorporating the image gradient flow norm preservation into the overall reconstruction problem to control the geometrical properties of t...
متن کاملEnhancement of SAR Imagery using DWT
This paper presents a new approach for the enhancement of Synthetic Radar Imagery using Discrete Wavelet Transform and its variants. Some of the approaches like nonlocal filtering (NLF) techniques, and multiscale iterative reconstruction (e.g., the BM3D method) do not solve the RE/SR imaging inverse problems in descriptive settings imposing some structured regularization constraints and exploit...
