摘要
En 中文
When a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) acquires raw data using a satellite or airborne platform, it must be transferred to the ground for further processing. For example, SAR raw data need a so-called 'focusing' signal processing to render it into a visible image. Such processing is time and computing consuming, and it is commonly carried out in computing centres. Since the data transfer rate is a typical limitation when communicating with the ground station, compression is necessary to reduce transmission time. So far, this procedure has been implemented in application-specific hardware, but recent adoption of avionic computational GPUs opened to new high-performance onboard perspectives. Due to the limited availability of avionic GPUs, we focused on parallel performance estimation starting from measures relative to a similar off-the-shelf solution. In this paper, we present a GPU algorithm for raw SAR data compression, which uses 1-dimensional DCT transforms, followed by quantisation and entropy coding. We evaluate results using ENVISAT (Environmental Satellite) ASAR Image Mode level 0 data by measuring compression rates, statistical parameters, and distortion on decompressed and then focused images. Moreover, by evaluating the Algorithmic Overhead induced by the parallelisation strategy, we predict the best thread-block configuration for possible adoption of such a GPU algorithm on one of the most available avionic hardware.
