dc.description.abstractThis paper describes a method of speckle reduction in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images based on the wavelet transform. To deduce the problem of filtering the multiplicative noise to the case of an additive noise, the wavelet decomposition is performed on the logarithm of the image gray levels. A threshold value is estimated according to the noise variance and used for the soft-thresholding performed on all the high frequency subimages. The filtered logarithmic image is then obtained by reconstruction from the thresholded coefficients. The exponential function of this reconstructed image gives the final filtered image. Experimental results on JERS-1/SAR images showed that the proposed method results in a significant noise removal.
