Pre-processing SAR image stream to facilitate compression for transport on bandwidth-limited-link

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1221971
Pre-processing is applied to a raw VideoSAR (or similar near-video rate) product to transform the image frame sequence into a product that resembles more closely the type of product for which conventional video codecs are designed, while sufficiently maintaining utility and visual quality of the product delivered by the codec.
