摘要
For the new generation of spaceborne SAR sensors a resolution even better than one meter in the spotlight acquisition mode can be obtained. However, due to the involved electromagnetic mechanisms dictating SAR image formation, direct interpretation of very high-resolution (VHR) SAR images is not straightforward. In this paper, we propose the use of the power spectral density (PSD) for the analysis and interpretation of VHR SAR images of urban areas. In particular, we introduce a theoretical model of the PSD of such images, and then we test the validity of the developed model on one COSMO/SkyMed spotlight SAR image of the area of Naples, Italy. Finally, we show how the parameters of the obtained PSD can be related to meaningful physical observables of the imaged urban scene.
