Abstract

A statistical hypothesis test for wavelength-resolution SAR change detection can be derived with the bivariate distributions such as Rayleigh, Gamma and K. The paper investigates the stability of change detection results obtained with a statistical hypothesis test using bivariate Rayleigh distribution. Some practical issues concerning the implementation of the statistical hypothesis test such as scale parameter estimation, target magnitude assumptions and Bessel function calculation are also addressed. The statistical hypothesis test using bi-variate Rayleigh distribution are experimented with the data set containing 24 CARABAS II images. It is shown that beside the simplicity and efficiency, a statistical hypothesis test using bivariate Rayleigh distribution can provide very stable change detection results.
