Abstract
The Lunar penetrating radar (LPR) carried by Chang’E-3 (CE-3) mission is an important application of radar in lunar exploration. An opportunity of significance to detect the information of regolith and the subsurface structure on the landing site is offered by LPR aboard the Yutu rover. On the basis of a data processing flow, a low-frequency radar image has been available for mapping subsurface structure. The noise interfered data give a huge challenge for geological stratification and interpretation. To solve the limitation imposed by noise, we adopt the shearlet transform as a promising tool for data analysis and noise attenuation. The different distributions of the noise and signal in the shearlet domain decrease the difficulty of noise attenuation. To optimize the denosing strategy, we replace a local adaptive thresholding function with the conventional hard threshold. The quality of the processed data is improved, which is helpful for geological stratification and interpretation. Finally, by combining these data with the regional geology and previous research, especially the LPR data, we can provide an interpretation of the LPR CH-1.
