The beam sharpening technique, combined with synthetic aperture radiation pattern estimation provides an approach to process this kind of data to achieve higher apparent resolution. Based on the criterion of minimizing the expected quadratic estimation error, an optimum FIR filter with a symmetrical structure is designed whose coefficients depend on the azimuth response of local isolated prominent points because this response can be approximately regarded as the synthetic aperture radiation pattern of the imaging system. The point target simulation shows that the angular resolution is improved by a ratio of almost two to one. The processing results of a live SAR image demonstrate the validity of the method.展开更多

The impacts of several fiber parameters on the coupling characteristics of the polarization splitter are investigated by full-vectorial finite element method(FV-FEM) in detail. Through optimizing the fiber configuration, a 4.267-mm-long polarization splitter with a bandwidth of 37 nm is achieved, and its extinction ratio(ER) is as high as 81.2 d B at the wavelength of 1.55 μm. Compared with the hexagonal dual-core photonic crystal fiber(H-D-PCF) based polarization splitter, both ER and bandwidth of the O-D-PCF based one are effectively improved.展开更多
