This paper presents a novel multi-layer perceptron (MLP) based image fusion technique, which fuses two synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images, obtained from the same spatial reflectivity map, acquired with a conventional low-cost fractional synthetic aperture radar (Fr-SAR) system, enhanced via two different methodologies. The first image is enhanced using the traditional descriptive experiment design regularization (DEDR) framework through the projection onto convex solution sets (POCS) method; the second image is enhanced with the DEDR framework by incorporating the robust adaptive spatial filtering (RASF) solution operator. This work describes a MLP based technique applied to the pixel level multi-focus fusion problem characterized by the use of image windows with the idea of reducing noise and determining which pixel is clearer between the two images. Experimental results show that the proposed novel method outperforms the discrete wavelet transform based most competing approach.

A sparse-based refocusing methodology for multiple slow-moving targets (MTs) located inside strong clutter regions is proposed in this paper. The defocused regions of MTs in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery were utilized here instead of the whole original radar data. A joint radar projection operator for the static and moving objects was formulated and employed to construct an optimization problem. The Lp norm constraint was utilized to promote the separation of MT data and the suppression of clutter. After the joint sparse imaging processing, the energy of strong static targets could be suppressed significantly in the reconstructed MT imagery. The static scene imagery could be derived simultaneously without the defocused MT. Finally, numerical simulations were used verify the validity and robustness of the proposed methodology.

Three general classes of image enhancement techniques for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) video were investigated through non-real-time computer simulation. The general categories were 1) monochromatic adaptive gray shade transformations, 2) pseudocolor encoding, and 3) feature analytic methods. The class of feature analytic techniques was found to have the greatest potential for improving the operational utility of SAR imagery.
