METHOD AND COMPUTER SYSTEM ADAPTED FOR ENHANCING RESOLUTIONS OF SYNTHETIC APERTURE RADAR (SAR) COLLECTIONS

Abstract: in a method and computer system for enhancing resolutions of synthetic aperture radar (sar) collections across a large search area, each collection may be represented by raw phase history data collected across a scene of the search area., the raw phase history embodied as a plurality of pulses representative of image data. the method includes ingesting a plurality of pulses in the raw phase history from the collection, the plurality of pulses including clean pulses and additional lower quality noisy pulses that have a determined potential value as to stationary or dynamic information on the ground. the method further includes enhancing resolution of the ingested clean and additional lower quality noisy pulses to generate enhanced pulses, and cleaning the enhanced pulses to create a two-dimensional scene of complex, grayscale or colorized pixels in either slant coordinates or ground plane coordinates.
