Record 2 2019-02-28

English

Subject field(s)
  • Remote Sensing
CONT

As SAR [synthetic aperture radar] is a coherent imaging system two forms of change detection may be considered, namely incoherent and coherent change detection. Incoherent change detection identifies changes in the mean backscatter power of a scene typically via an average intensity ratio change statistic. Coherent change detection on the other hand, identifies changes in both the amplitude and phase of the transduced imagery using the sample coherence change statistic.

OBS

coherent change detection; CCD: designations standardized by NATO.
