文摘An efficient despeclding algorithm is proposed based on stationary wavelet transform (SWT) for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. The statistical model of wavelet coefficients is analyzed and its performance is modeled with a mixture density of two zero-mean Gaussian distributions. A fuzzy shrinkage factor is derived based on the minimum mean square error (MMSE) criteria with Bayesian estimation. In the case above, the ideas of region division and fuzzy shrinkage arc adopted according to the interscale dependencies among wavelet coefficients. The noise-free wavelet coefficients are estimated accurately. Experimental results show that the algorithm proposed is superior to the refined Lee filter, wavelet soft thresbolding shrinkage and SWT shrinkage algorithms in terms of smoothing effects and edges preservation.
