Processing Of The Danish C-band SAR Data
ثبت نشده
چکیده
A new Danish C-band SAR was tested in the fall of 1989. As part of the system a very flexible software processor has been developed. The processor is designed to serve several purposes such as experimental test and analysis processor, real-time processor development tool, and operational off-line processor. The processor also holds substantial motion compensation features, and they are described too. In the initial test a 2 by 2 m resolution was verified by analysis of echoes from comer reflectors.

Danish polarimetric SAR data have been applied t o estimate soil moisture (SM). The preliminary results evaluated with the Land C-band SAR dat,a acquired at the Danish test site Foulum during a number of missions in 1994 and 1995 are presented. In situ data have been collected during the SAR missions and the variations of SM at field scale are discussed. The Integral Equation El]. In addition, ...
متن کاملThe Danish SAR system: design and initial tests
In January 1986 the design of a high-resolution airborne C-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) started at the Electromagnetics Institute of the Technical University of Denmark. The initial system test flights took place in November and December 1989. The purpose of this paper is to describe the design of the system, its implementation, and performance. The paper will show how digital technology...
متن کاملWhat Is Gained by Using an L-band Sar for Sea Ice Monitoring ?
RESUME For sea ice monitoring by means of radar remote sensing, systems operating at C-band are regarded as an optimal choice. In a number of studies that have been published since the early 90s it was found, however, that sea ice types can be better discriminated at L-band than at C-band provided that more than one polarization is available. For special tasks, such as imaging sea ice ridges an...

Land cover is defined as the physical material of the surface of the earth, including different vegetation covers, bare soil, water surface, various urban areas, etc. Land cover and its changes are very important and influential on the Earth and life of living organisms, especially human beings. Land cover change monitoring is important for protecting the ecosystem, forests, farmland, open spac...
متن کاملMulti-look polarimetric SAR image filtering using simulated annealing
Based on a previously published algorithm capable of estimating the radar cross-section in synthethic aperture radar (SAR) intensity images, a new filter is presented utilizing multilook polarimetric SAR images. The underlying mean covariance matrix is estimated from the observed sample covariance matrices, and by applying a set of small orientation-dependent filters in an iterative scheme, the...
