Detrend effect on the scalograms of GPS power scintillation

The study of amplitude scintillation on GPS radio links is usually done after detrending the time series of the transmitted power so to define scintillations as the chaotic fluctuation around a unitary value. In a sense, the choice of how to detrend the time series is part of the definition of scintillation.     

The land remote sensing commercialization Act of 1984

This article examines the effect that private-sector remote sensing activities might have on the international community and on the future of international cooperation in space. It describes in detail The Land Remote Sensing Commercialization Act of 1984, recently passed by the US Congress and signed by President Reagan. The article concludes that it is possible to develop domestic regulations that balance the economic interests of the private sector with the legal and political concerns of the international community.

Cost-driven design of small satellite remote sensing systems*

Earth remote sensing (alongside communications) is one of the key application of Earth-orbiting satellites. Civilian satellites in the LANDSAT and SPOT series provide Earth images which have been used for a vast spectrum of applications in agriculture, meteorology, hydrology, urban planning and geology, to name but a few. In the defence sector, satellite remote sensing systems are a critical tool in strategic and tactical planning – for the countries which can afford them. To date, remote sensing satellites have fallen into one of these two categories: military missions driven by the requirement for very high resolution and orbital agility; and multipurpose civil satellites using general purpose sensors to serve a diverse community of end users. For military-style missions, the drive to high resolution sets the requirements for optics, attitude control and downlink data bandwidth. For civil missions, the requirement to satisfy multiple, diverse user applications forces compromises on spectral band and orbit selection. Although there are exceptions, many small satellite remote sensing missions carry on in this tradition, concentrating on ultra high resolution products for multiple user communities. This results in satellites costing on the order of US $100 M, not optimised for any particular application. This paper explores an alternative path to satellite remote sensing, aiming simultaneously to reduce cost and to optimise imaging products for specific applications. By decreasing the cost of the remote sensing satellite system to a critical point, it becomes appropriate to optimise the sensor's spectral and temporal characteristics to fit the requirements of a small, specialised user base. The critical engineering trade-off faced in a cost driven mission is how to reduce mission cost while still delivering a useful product to the selected user. At the Surrey Space Centre, we have pursued an engineering path using two dimensional CCD array sensors, commercial off-the-shelf lenses and gravity-gradient stabilised microsatellites. In spite of the inherent limitations of such systems, recent successes with the Thai Microsatellite Company's Thai-Phutt satellite show that a system costing in the region of US $3 million, can approach the spectral and spatial characteristics of LANDSAT. Surrey's UoSAT-12 minisatellite (to be launched April, 1999) will further develop this cost-driven approach to provide 10 m panchromatic resolution and 30 m multi-spectral resolution. This paper describes the Thai-Phutt and UoSAT-12 imaging systems, explaining the engineering methods and trade-offs. Although Surrey is presently the only centre presently pursuing such implementations, our paper shows that they deserve wider consideration.     

TopPixelLoss:类别不均衡的遥感影像语义分割损失函数

针对遥感影像中类别不均衡的小目标分割效果不理想的问题，提出了一种类别不均衡小目标二分类分割的损失函数——TopPixelLoss损失函数。首先计算出每个像素的交叉熵，然后将所有像素的交叉熵按从大到小进行排序，随后确定一个K值作为阈值，筛选出前K个交叉熵最大的像素，最后对于筛选出的K个像素交叉熵取平均，做为损失值。在ISPRS 提供的 Vaihingen 数据集上，使用PSPNet网络与普通交叉熵、FocalLoss、TopPixelLoss三种损失函数分别对车辆进行二分类分割试验。结果表明，不同的K值，使用TopPixelLoss损失函数的平均交并比（MIoU）、F1-score、准确度（ACC）都最高;当K值为5×104时效果最佳，MIoU、F1-score、ACC分别比FocalLoss提高了3.0%、5.0%、0.1%。TopPixelLoss损失函数是一种针对类别不均衡分割非常有效的损失函数

一种融合MRF分割与数学形态学的道路提取算法

针对高分辨率合成孔径雷达（Synthetic Aperture Radar, SAR）图像中道路目标难以有效提取的问题,提出一种融合马尔可夫随机场（Markov Random Field, MRF）分割与数学形态学处理的高分辨率SAR图像道路提取算法。该算法首先利用直方图均衡化和增强Lee滤波对SAR图像进行预处理,实现道路的边缘增强,抑制相干斑噪声;进而利用基于条件迭代模式（Iterated Conditional Mode, ICM）的MRF对SAR图像中的道路目标进行初分割;再用数学形态学填充空洞,平滑道路边缘;最后,基于道路的几何特征,使用偏心率、矩阵度、复杂度等因子去除虚警,从而提取出道路目标。利用该文算法对两块实际高分辨率SAR图像进行道路目标提取,均可以取得90%以上的正确道路提取率,表明本文算法具有较高的道路提取精度。
