Detecting moving targets in dual-channel high resolution spaceborne SAR images with a compound detection scheme

摘要

Traffic data acquisition from space has evolved to anudimportant task over the last years. Future SAR satellite missions will provide high resolution dual-channel SAR data and therefore a possibilty to collect traffic parameters of a large area from space. In this paper a detection approach for vehicles will be presented, which considers simultaneously the effects moving objects suffer from in the SAR image. The performance of the proposed detection scheme is analyzed using experimental airborne SAR data.
