Auto-focus for Under-sampled Synthetic Aperture Radar
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate the effects of phase errors on undersampled synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems. We show that the standard methods of auto-focus, which are used as a postprocessing step, are typically not suitable. Instead of applying auto-focus as a post-processor we propose using a stable algorithm, which is based on algorithms from the dictionary learning literature, that corrects phase errors during the reconstruction and is found empirically to recover sparse SAR images.

Damages due to subsidence such as destruction of watering system and agricultural fertile soil, wells increasing, damage to the roads, bridges and high ways and disordering in the water and gas supplying usually are irreparable and costly. As a huge amount bench marks of height network of Iran are placed in the subsidence area, changing their heights is a challenge for NCC. In this study, a new...
متن کاملSpeckle Reduction in Synthetic Aperture Radar Images in Wavelet Domain Exploiting Intra-scale and Inter-scale Dependencies
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images are inherently affected by a multiplicative noise-like phenomenon called speckle, which is indeed the nature of all coherent systems. Speckle decreases the performance of almost all the information extraction methods such as classification, segmentation, and change detection, therefore speckle must be suppressed. Despeckling can be applied by the multilooki...
متن کاملImaging method for highly squinted synthetic aperture radar with under- sampled echo data
The amount of echo data is very large in highly squinted synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging with high resolution. To solve this problem, an imaging method for highly squinted SAR with under-sampled echo data based on compressed sensing (CS) is put forward. First, the echo signal model of highly squinted SAR is analyzed and a nonlinear chirp scaling (NCS) imaging method with the Nyquist-samp...
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...
