Multi-Chromatic Analysis of SAR Images for Coherent Target Detection

Abstract: This work investigates the possibility of performing target analysis through the Multi-Chromatic Analysis (MCA), a technique that basically explores the information content of sub-band images obtained by processing portions of the range spectrum of a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image. According to the behavior of the SAR signal at the different sub-bands, MCA allows target classification. Two strategies have been experimented by processing TerraSAR-X images acquired over the Venice Lagoon, Italy: one exploi… Show more

“…The so-called interband coherence, based on a model for distributed scatterers, is then used to discriminate different types of targets. Since a performance analysis of this approach has been recently published in [12], no further investigations on interband coherence are included in this paper.…”

“…An alternative detection scheme that exploits the stability of the scattering along the spectral components in a pixel-based strategy has been presented as well, which is named the phase variance approach (PVA) [14], [15]. This method has been recently extended to interferometric pairs in [12] and [16]. However, no performance characterization of the SCA, the SEA, and the PVA is available yet.…”

“…Simple Linear Iterative Clustering (SLIC) is a widely used superpixel segmentation method [33], and has been introduced into some SAR scenes. Some researchers also use multi-chromatic analysis to perform target detection and analysis on SAR images [34,35].…”

“…So far, the frequency-persistent scatterers have been selected using the multifrequency phase error [6] that is an estimator of the coherence from one spectral subband to another and that quantifies the quality of the phase measurements. In [7], the scattering properties of the frequency-persistent scatterers and "temporally" coherent scatterers (PS) from the Permanent Scatterers Interferometry (PSI) [8] are investigated. Among the potential applications of SBInSAR, let us mention absolute height retrieval, change detection [9], ionospheric correction [10,11] and urban monitoring.…”
