What is radar? What systems are currently in use? How do they work?
Understanding Radar Systems provides engineers and scientists with
answers to these critical questions, focusing on actual radar
systems in use today. It's the perfect resource for those just
entering the field or a quick refresher for experienced
practitioners. The book leads readers through the specialized
language and calculations that comprise the complex world of modern
radar engineering as seen in dozens of state-of-the-art radar
systems. The authors stress practical concepts that apply to all
radar, keeping math to a minimum. Most of the book is based on real
radar systems rather than theoretical studies. The result is a
valuable, easy-to-use guide that makes the difficult parts of the
field easier and helps readers do performance calculations quickly
and easily.
Written for SAR system designers and remote sensing specialists,
this practical reference shows you how to produce higher quality
SAR images using data-driven algorithms, and how to apply powerful
new techniques to measure and analyze SAR image content. The book
describes how SAR imagery is formed, how SAR processing affects
image properties, and gives you specific guidance in selecting and
applying today's most sophisticated analytical techniques. By
helping you to quickly assess which components of an SAR image
should be measured, the book enables you to devote more time and
energy to the real task of image interpretation and analysis. Now
includes a CD-ROM featuring a 2-month free license to InfoPACK
Version 1.2! InfoPACK, developed by Chris Oliver, is a SAR image
interpretation software suite which exploits and extends the
principles described in the book, enabling the user to run many of
the algorithms. It features an easy to use GUI, image viewer and
versatile scripting language, making applications development easy
and fast. Particular aspects of interest include segmentation,
classification (supervised and unsupervised), speckle reduction and
a host of techniques for data fusion. Routines within InfoPACK
include: * Intensity Segmentation (single image; multitemporal,
multipolarization) * Speckle Reduction * Texture Segmentation *
Segmentation Postprocessing * Classification * Edge Detection *
Point Target Detection * Large Area Change Detection Also included
are a variety of low-level filters and functions for image
manipulation and arithmetic operations. Key Features of the Book *
Filled with real-world examples from various SAR systems, the book
reveals sophisticated, proven techniques for: * SAR filtering,
parameter estimation, image reconstruction, segmentation, and
classification * Evaluating measurement algorithms to help make
better algorithm selections * Applying powerful speckle removal
methods to airborne and spaceborne SAR data
