摘要
En 中文
The characterization and understanding of microwave remote sensing image quality is essential to the monitoring performance of sensors and the proper usage of the acquired image. Point targets (e. g., passive corner reflectors and active transponders) have been widely used for microwave image resolution analysis. However, the analysis results based on point targets do not include the effects of speckle and thermal noise that are rare for point targets but common for distributed targets. Since distributed targets are common in remote sensing imaging scenes and their distinguishability is of interest in practice, the concept of an optical bar pattern target was extended to the microwave band, and a microwave bar pattern target was designed and permanently built at the National Calibration and Validation Site for High-Resolution Remote Sensors. In this letter, the main design idea is first introduced. Different backscatter coefficients of the bars were achieved for different surface roughness made by black rough gravel and a white smooth concrete plate, where the gravel size was designed per the Rayleigh roughness criterion. The experimental results using C-band airborne SAR and X-band KOMPSAT-5 SAR images are presented. A quantitative analysis shows that this target could roughly evaluate the image resolution of high-resolution microwave imaging sensor and would be a good complement to point targets.
