실제 SAR 영상에서의 최소 엔트로피 기반의 자동 초점 기법 연구

Abstract

In cases of airborne equipped with SAR, because the occurrence of motion is inevitable, it is necessary to apply autofocus techniques to SAR images to improve the image performance degradations caused by residual errors. Herein, a robust autofocus algorithm based on the minimum entropy criteria is proposed for the real SAR data in the spotlight mode. The convergence condition of the phase error estimation is checked at every iteration and if it is violated, the size of the phase error estimation is adjusted to the convergence condition. The real SAR raw data is used to demonstrate the excellent performance of the proposed algorithm.
