Based on the joint Probability Density Function (PDF) of the Along-Track Interferometric (ATI) phase and the similarity between the two SAR complex images, a novel ellipse detector is presented and is applied to the indication of ground moving targets. We derive its statistics and analyze the performance of detection process in detail. Compared with the approach using the ATI phase, the ellipse detector has a better performance of detection in homogenous clutter. Numerical experiments on simulated data are presented to validate the improved performance of the ellipse detector with respect to the ATI phase approach. Finally, the detection capability of the proposed method is demonstrated by measured SAR data.展开更多

The method takes advantage of the coherence information of neighboring pixel pairs to auto-coregister the SAR images and employs the projection of the joint signal subspace onto the corresponding joint noise subspace to estimate the terrain interferometric phase. The method can auto-coregister the SAR images and reduce the interferometric phase noise simultaneously. Theoretical analysis and computer simulation results show that the method can provide accurate estimate of the interferometric phase (interferogram) of very steep terrain even if the coregistration error reaches one pixel. The effectiveness of the method is verified via simulated data and real data.展开更多

As two examples, in 2-D and 3-D case a super-simplex is shown as a parallel hexagon and a parallel quadrilateral dodecahedron, respectively. We have extended most of concepts and results of the traditional Fourier methods on multivariate cases, such as Fourier basis system, Fourier series, discrete Fourier transform (DFT) and its fast algorithm (FFT) on the super-simplex, as well as generalized sine and cosine transforms (DST, DCT) and related fast algorithms over a simplex. The relationship between the basic orthogonal system and eigen-functions of a LaDlacian-like operator over these domains is explored.展开更多
