Radar speckle: noise or information?

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperpeer-review

Abstract

In this paper, we examine radar speckle from a non-traditional perspective. Instead of viewing radar speckle as noise, we attempt to assess the information content of radar speckle. A speckle identification algorithm is developed to separate speckle from pixels of 'normal' returns. The relationships between land cover types and the density and roughness of speckle are examined.
