چکیده

In this paper, an adaptive beamformer algorithm LMS is presented and showed to improve the Bayesian Maximum Entropy–Variational Analysis (BMEVA) performance for high resolution radar imaging and denoising. A formalism to fuse the BMEVA and its integration inside the LMS structure is also presented. Finally, the image enhancement and denoising produced by the proposed Adaptive BMEVA method is analyzed, and the filter computational performance is demonstrated via SAR images scenarios.

Fusion 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...

Research on employment of adaptive beamformer based on weight iterative algorithm in suppressing radio frequency interferences

By comparing the disadvantages and advantages of conventional algorithms of adaptive beamformer, we put forward an adaptive beamformer based on weight iterative algorithm for suppressing radio frequency interference (RFI), according to the distributing properties of RFI in different range cell. We get the initial weight vector of the adaptive beamformer by utilizing the algorithm of minimum var...

B-Mode Photoacoustic Imaging using Linear Array: Numerical Study for Forward-Backward Minimum Variance Beamformer Combined with Delay-Multiply-and-Sum

Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is a promising medical imaging modality which provides the resolution of Ultrasound (US) and the contrast of Optical imaging modalities. One of the most important challenges in PAI is image formation, especially in the case that a linear-array US transducer is used for data acquisition. This is due to the fact that in the linear-array scenario, there is only 60 degre...
