Discriminating Ship From Radio Frequency Interference Based on Noncircularity and Non-Gaussianity in Sentinel-1 SAR Imagery

TL;DR: Results show that noncircularity and non-Gaussianity are extremely helpful complements for single-channel SAR imagery interpretation and can characterize and identify the difference between ships and RFIs.

Relationship between macrophyte stand variables and radar backscatter at L and C band, Tucuruí reservoir, Brazil

TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between macrophyte stand variables such as above-ground biomass, stand average height and moisture, and radar backscatter at C and L bands was examined.

Micro-Doppler analysis of a rotating target in synthetic aperture radar

TL;DR: The chirplet-based method of m-D extraction has been successfully applied to SAR data scene collected by the US Navy APY-6 radar and establishes itself as a viable alternative to the wavelet approach of decomposing the SAR radar return.

Automatic near real-time flood detection in high resolution X-band synthetic aperture radar satellite data using context-based classification on irregular graphs

TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid Markov random field (MRF) model is proposed for the automatic derivation of flood areas under shrubs and grasses from TerraSAR-X data.

Clear-Cut Detection in Swedish Boreal Forest Using Multi-Temporal ALOS PALSAR Backscatter Data

TL;DR: A simple thresholding algorithm that exploits the temporal consistency of time series of HV-backscatter measurements has been developed for clear-cut detection in the county of Västerbotten, Sweden and is reasonable when aiming at detecting clear-cuts, whereas there are shortcomings in terms of delineation.
