TLDR
A new speckle reduction method based on wavelet and bilateral filtering is proposed that preserves edges and protect details in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images.
Abstract
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images are inherently affected by multiplicative speckle noise, which requires despeckle before many other image processing and analysis applications. In this paper, a new speckle reduction method based on wavelet and bilateral filtering is proposed. Bilatreal filtering is applied to the low frequency subbands of a signal obtained by wavelet transform. The new method preserves edges and protect details. Experimental results tested on real SAR images demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.

Bilateral filtering for gray and color images

TL;DR: In contrast with filters that operate on the three bands of a color image separately, a bilateral filter can enforce the perceptual metric underlying the CIE-Lab color space, and smooth colors and preserve edges in a way that is tuned to human perception.
