Theory of Remote Image Formation

Pirmais vāks
Cambridge University Press, 2004. gada 18. nov.
This book was first published in 2004. In many applications, images, such as ultrasonic or X-ray signals, are recorded and then analyzed with digital or optical processors in order to extract information. Such processing requires the development of algorithms of great precision and sophistication. This book presents a unified treatment of the mathematical methods that underpin the various algorithms used in remote image formation. The author begins with a review of transform and filter theory. He then discusses two- and three-dimensional Fourier transform theory, the ambiguity function, image construction and reconstruction, tomography, baseband surveillance systems, and passive systems (where the signal source might be an earthquake or a galaxy). Information-theoretic methods in image formation are also covered, as are phase errors and phase noise. Throughout the book, practical applications illustrate theoretical concepts, and there are many homework problems. The book is aimed at graduate students of electrical engineering and computer science, and practitioners in industry.

The wavelengths are so long that they are comparable to the height of the lowest ionospheric layer (approximately 50 km). The ionosphere and the surface...

373. lappuse - Maximum Entropy and Minimum Discrimination The Jaynes maximum entropy principle of data reduction says that when reducing a set of data into the form of an underlying model, one should be maximally noncommittal with respect to missing data. If one must estimate a probability distribution subject to constraints on it, then one should choose the probability distribution of maximum entropy consistent with the constraints.

Coherent optical processing is eminently well suited to the processing tasks which arise in such radar systems. The azimuth or angular resolution of a conventional radar is limited by the width of the physical radar beam, which is given by \/D, where X is the wavelength and D is the antenna width.
