Band-to-band registration accuracy is an important parameter of multispectral data. A novel band-to-band registration approach with high precision is proposed for the multi-spectral images of HJ-1A/B. Firstly, the main causes resulted in misregistration are analyzed, and a high-order polynomial model is proposed. Secondly, a phase fringe filtering technique is employed to Phase Correlation Method based on Singular Value Decomposition (SVD-PCM) for reducing the noise in phase difference matrix. Then, experiments are carried out to build nonlinear registration models, and images of green band and red band are aligned to blue band with an accuracy of 0.1 pixels, while near infrared band with an accuracy of 0.2 pixels.

The Two-step algorithm (TSA) is widely used for trajectory deviation compensation of airborne Synthetic aperture radar (SAR), by which most of the mo- tion errors are compensated before Range curve migration compensation (RCMC) and the residual after the RCMC. We found that the RCMC in the presence of the residual motion errors results in additional range shift errors hard to be compensated for. Based on theoretical investiga- tions, this shortage of TSA is reported and a new compen- sation scheme which greatly alleviates the RCMC induced errors is proposed. Besides, range resampling considering the residual motion errors is very convinent, which, how- ever, is boresome in TSA. The new method is effective to compensate the high resolution SAR systems for large tra- jectory deviations, which is hard to be achieved by TSA because of the uncompensated errors. Results on the sim- ulated data are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new method.

Range-Doppler (RD) method and Reverse-Range-Doppler (RRD) method are combined together to achieve automatic geocoding of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image quickly and accurately in the paper. The RD method is firstly used to locate the four corners of the image, then the other pixels of the image can be located by Reverse-Range-Doppler (RRD) method. Resampling is performed at last. The approach has an advantage over previous techniques in that it does not require ground control points and is independent of spacecraft attitude knowledge or control. It can compensate the shift due to the assumed Doppler frequency in SAR image preprocessing. RRD simplifies the process of RD, therefore speeds up the computation. The experimental results show that a SAR image can be automated geocoded in 30 s using the single CPU (3 GHz) with 1 G memory and an accuracy of 10 m is attainable with this method.

The layover phenomenon of SAR imaging arises when different height contributions collapse in the same range-azimuth resolution cell, due to the presence of strong terrain slopes or discontinuities in the scenarios. Because of the phase discontinuities, for single baseline interferometric SAR, it is difficult to recover the accurate unwrapped phase in layover areas by traditional phase unwrapping methods. In this paper, according to the phase characteristic of layover areas, we propose a new method to retrieve unwrapped phase based on local frequency estimate. It can avoid the unwrapping error resulted from the phase jump at the edge of layover areas. As a result, relative accurate DEM of layover areas can be reconstructed, which is beneficial to afterward geocoding in InSAR topographic mapping.

Due to the significant azimuth variance property in medium-Earth-orbit (MEO) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) echo, it is difficult for the conventional SAR algorithms to achieve a good compromise between accuracy and efficiency. A novel algorithm based on keystone transform (KT) and azimuth perturbation (AP) is introduced in this paper to handle this problem. The function of KT is to correct the range walk and thus to mitigate the azimuth variance effect on range processing. The function of AP is to equalize the Doppler histories in each range gate and thus to mitigate the azimuth variance effect on azimuth compressing. Simulation results of an L-band MEO SAR with 5 m resolution at 10,000 km altitude demonstrate the capability of our algorithm.

This paper presents a new simplex-based method for unsupervised endmember extraction, called maximum abundance sum-to-one constraint (ASC) fraction (MAF). The ASC fractions refer to the spectral unmixing results with the abundance sum-to-one constraint unmixing only. The algorithm assumes the existence of the pure pixels in the input data for every endmember in the scene, and exploits the fact that pixels with maximum ASC fractions are corresponding to the vertices of a simplex. In order to demonstrate the performance of the proposed MAF, the N-findr algorithm (N-FINDR) and vertex component analysis (VCA) based merely on PCA dimensional reduction are used for comparison. Experiments using both simulated and real hyperspectral data show that MAF is effective in searching optimal results, with a low computational complexity.

A new empirical topographic correction method is proposed in this paper. The main idea of the new method is smoothing the slope angle of terrain in the first place and then performing the cosine correction based on the smoothed terrain. A comparison is conducted among the new method and several other common methods using Landsat-7 ETM+ data. Visual analysis and statistical analysis are adopted to assess the performance of these methods from two aspects: overcorrection, homogeneity within a land cover class. Comparison results indicate that the new method is superior to the cosine correction, Gamma correction, Sun-Canopy-Sensor correction, and Minnaert correction. Compared with common methods, the proposed one can eliminate overcorrection better and is an effective topographic correction method.
