CORRELATION RADAR [8 records]

Record 1 2017-05-18

English

Subject field(s)
  • Remote Sensing
DEF

A remote-sensing term referring to the process of assigning different colours to different spectral bands.

CONT

The image processing consisted in generating intensity images and one coherence image. To facilitate their analysis and interpretation, a coloured composition has been created with the results. This composition is obtained by adding the coherence image in red, the average of both images phase intensities in green and the difference between these phase intensities in blue. As such, a high coherence level(value close to 1) appears in red and indicates a very good phase correlation between the two images, a consequence of the various mechanisms of radar signal scattering and of the lack of change which could affect the target. On the contrary, a weak coherence level(value tending to 0) appears in black and indicates a movement in these zones during the 24 hours interval which separated the two image shots. Lastly, the white spots correspond to areas with a strong radar signal backscattering i. e. with zones of hills or vegetation.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Télédétection
CONT

Dans les systèmes de télédétection, nous avons vu qu'il est possible de détecter et d'enregistrer des parties du spectre électromagnétique qui ne sont pas décelables à l'oeil nu, comme l'infrarouge par exemple. Pour pouvoir visualiser cette information, on associe aux bandes spectrales du système d'observation des couleurs d'affichage (rouge-vert-bleu), qui ne leur correspondent pas nécessairement. Ce faisant, on crée des compositions colorées [...]

Record 3 2012-01-09

English

Subject field(s)
  • Range Measurements (Telecommunications)
  • Radar, Radio Guidance and Goniometry
DEF

A device that measures the coherence between two wave systems to detect weak signals lost in noise.

CONT

While most of existing SAR [synthetic aperture radar] image registration methods try to pre-filter the speckle noise before applying an optical correlator, here we estimate the correlation directly from complex images.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Mesures à distance (Télécommunications)
  • Radar, radioguidage et radiogoniométrie
DEF

Dispositif mesurant la cohérence entre deux systèmes d'onde afin de détecter les signaux faibles plus ou moins perdus dans le bruit.

CONT

Pour répondre à cette interrogation, un concept d'expérience original a été imaginé : deux impulsions laser ultrabrèves de longueurs d'onde différentes mais dont la somme de fréquence est suffisante pour exciter la fluorescence d'un colorant dilué dans la microcavité sont décalées temporellement (expérience pompe-sonde). La fluorescence n'est excitée que lorsque les deux paquets d'onde se recouvrent spatialement : on réalise ainsi un corrélateur optique.

CONT

Hace más de 30 años Van der Lugt inició una época de expansión de la óptica de Fourier al introducir por primera vez una exitosa configuración para el procesado óptico de datos - el llamado correlador óptico. Esta operación está basada en la capacidad de una lente convexa de realizar una operación proporcional a la transformada de Fourier en dos dimensiones de un objeto y cuya respuesta está localizada en el plano focal.
