Abstract:
Validation is the basis of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image quantification applications. Based on the point target of the field site, the radiation characteristics of the backscattering coefficient image can be used to optimize the SAR imaging, and the product production system can be more closely targeted, to ensure the image product accuracy in the actual quantification application. In this study, the validation of the backscattering coefficient image was examined using calibrators, and the radiometric properties of the image were evaluated by extracting the radar cross-section of each point target. Bilinear interpolation and fast Fourier transform (FFT) interpolation methods were introduced for the local area interpolation of point targets, and the two methods were compared from the perspective of response function imaging and validation accuracy. The results show that the FFT interpolation method is more favorable for validating the backscattering coefficient.
