Improving Wishart Classification of Polarimetric SAR Data Using the Hopfield Neural Network Optimization Approach.

This paper proposes the optimization relaxation approach based on the analogue Hopfield Neural Network (HNN) for cluster refinement of pre-classified Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PolSAR) image data. We consider the initial classification provided by the maximum-likelihood classifier based on the complex Wishart distribution, which is then supplied to the HNN optimization approach. The goal is to improve the classification results obtained by the Wishart approach. The classification improvement is verified by computing a cluster separability coefficient and a measure of homogeneity within the clusters. During the HNN optimization process, for each iteration and for each pixel, two consistency coefficients are computed, taking into account two types of relations between the pixel under consideration and its corresponding neighbors. Based on these coefficients and on the information coming from the pixel itself, the pixel under study is re-classified. Different experiments are carried out to verify that the proposed approach outperforms other strategies, achieving the best results in terms of separability and a trade-off with the homogeneity preserving relevant structures in the image. The performance is also measured in terms of computational central processing unit (CPU) times.

Técnica de Inversión Temporal para la Mejora del Enfocado de Imágenes SAR en Entornos Urbanos

Conventional SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) techniques only consider a single reflection of transmitted waveforms from targets. Nevertheless, today?s new applications force SAR systems to work in much more complex scenes such as urban environments. As a result, multiple-bounce returns are additionally superposed to direct echoes. We refer to these as ghost images, since they obscure true target image and lead to poor resolution. By applying Time Reversal concept to SAR imaging (TR-SAR), it is possible to reduce considerably ?or almost mitigate? ghosting artifacts, recovering the lost resolution due to multipath effects. Furthermore, some focusing indicators such as entropy (E), contrast (C) and Rényi entropy (RE) provide us a good focusing criterion when using TR-SAR.

Ensayos de laboratorio para la medida de la tasa de absorción específica (SAR) en dispositivos móviles

El proyecto trata del estudio de la tasa de absorción específica (SAR). En él se estudia la SAR que desprenden distintos dispositivos de comunicaciones inalámbricos. Se ha llevado a cabo en las instalaciones de la SETSI, en el laboratorio de radiofrecuencia situado en El Casar, Guadalajara, que pertenece al Ministerio de Industria Comercio y Turismo. La SAR es una relación entre la energía electromagnética acumulada en una masa de un material o tejido concreto. Por tanto, lo primero es definir la SAR, en la que se exponen sus parámetros. Además, se recogen los límites de exposición fijados por las normas internacionales IEC 62209-1 e IEC 62209-2 en relación a SAR. Posteriormente, acorde con las normas, se realiza una definición detallada de un banco de medidas de SAR, en donde se explica cada uno de los componentes del banco de manera detallada así como los sistemas que intervienen previamente a la realización de la medida, tipos de los sistemas para realizar las verificaciones pertinentes, y también las incertidumbres de ciertos parámetros. También se realiza un proceso completo de medida de SAR en el laboratorio de la SETSI, donde se realizan las comprobaciones necesarias para la realización de una serie de medidas sobre dispositivos de comunicaciones móviles. Éstas medidas se realizan primero sobre un teléfono móvil en las frecuencias de GSM, UMTS y WIFI, en las configuraciones estipuladas por la norma; “tocando” e “inclinada 15°” comparando los valores obtenidos con los límites marcados por las normas internacionales. Por último, en este apartado se realizan ciertas medidas con otras configuraciones que no están recogidas en la norma para intentar obtener los máximos valores de SAR posibles. Después se realiza una comparación entre dos dispositivos tipo “tablet”, para ello se realizan medidas en la banda de WIFI y se comentan los resultados obtenidos, relacionado con el diseño de cada uno de ellos. Posteriormente se realiza un presupuesto de un banco de SAR, donde se detallan todos los componentes que intervienen en la realización de las medidas de SAR, pero no se incluyen en él, los costes de mantenimiento o los costes relacionados con su uso. Por último se explican las conclusiones finales desprendidas de la realización de este proyecto de fin de carrera así como la bibliografía utilizada.

Processing of ultra-wideband low-frequency signals, for application in Foliage Penetration (FOPEN) Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) systems

Foliage Penetration (FOPEN) radar systems were introduced in 1960, and have been constantly improved by several organizations since that time. The use of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) approaches for this application has important advantages, due to the need for high resolution in two dimensions. The design of this type of systems, however, includes some complications that are not present in standard SAR systems. FOPEN SAR systems need to operate with a low central frequency (VHF or UHF bands) in order to be able to penetrate the foliage. High bandwidth is also required to obtain high resolution. Due to the low central frequency, large integration angles are required during SAR image formation, and therefore the Range Migration Algorithm (RMA) is used. This project thesis identifies the three main complications that arise due to these requirements. First, a high fractional bandwidth makes narrowband propagation models no longer valid. Second, the VHF and UHF bands are used by many communications systems. The transmitted signal spectrum needs to be notched to avoid interfering them. Third, those communications systems cause Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) on the received signal. The thesis carries out a thorough analysis of the three problems, their degrading effects and possible solutions to compensate them. The UWB model is applied to the SAR signal, and the degradation induced by it is derived. The result is tested through simulation of both a single pulse stretch processor and the complete RMA image formation. Both methods show that the degradation is negligible, and therefore the UWB propagation effect does not need compensation. A technique is derived to design a notched transmitted signal. Then, its effect on the SAR image formation is evaluated analytically. It is shown that the stretch processor introduces a processing gain that reduces the degrading effects of the notches. The remaining degrading effect after processing gain is assessed through simulation, and an experimental graph of degradation as a function of percentage of nulled frequencies is obtained. The RFI is characterized and its effect on the SAR processor is derived. Once again, a processing gain is found to be introduced by the receiver. As the RFI power can be much higher than that of the desired signal, an algorithm is proposed to remove the RFI from the received signal before RMA processing. This algorithm is a modification of the Chirp Least Squares Algorithm (CLSA) explained in [4], which adapts it to deramped signals. The algorithm is derived analytically and then its performance is evaluated through simulation, showing that it is effective in removing the RFI and reducing the degradation caused by both RFI and notching. Finally, conclusions are drawn as to the importance of each one of the problems in SAR system design.

Study of the effects of moving targets in SAR images for their detection.

Synthetic Aperture Radar’s (SAR) are systems designed in the early 50’s that are capable of obtaining images of the ground using electromagnetic signals. Thus, its activity is not interrupted by adverse meteorological conditions or during the night, as it occurs in optical systems. The name of the system comes from the creation of a synthetic aperture, larger than the real one, by moving the platform that carries the radar (typically a plane or a satellite). It provides the same resolution as a static radar equipped with a larger antenna. As it moves, the radar keeps emitting pulses every 1/PRF seconds —the PRF is the pulse repetition frequency—, whose echoes are stored and processed to obtain the image of the ground. To carry out this process, the algorithm needs to make the assumption that the targets in the illuminated scene are not moving. If that is the case, the algorithm is able to extract a focused image from the signal. However, if the targets are moving, they get unfocused and/or shifted from their position in the final image. There are applications in which it is especially useful to have information about moving targets (military, rescue tasks,studyoftheflowsofwater,surveillanceofmaritimeroutes...).Thisfeatureiscalled Ground Moving Target Indicator (GMTI). That is why the study and the development of techniques capable of detecting these targets and placing them correctly in the scene is convenient. In this document, some of the principal GMTI algorithms used in SAR systems are detailed. A simulator has been created to test the features of each implemented algorithm on a general situation with moving targets. Finally Monte Carlo tests have been performed, allowing us to extract conclusions and statistics of each algorithm.

Estimación de la Reflectividad del Multitrayecto en Entornos Urbanos en Radares de Apertura Sintética

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images a target region reflectivity function in the multi-dimensional spatial domain of range and cross-range. SAR synthesizes a large aperture radar in order to achieve finer azimuth resolution than the one provided by any on-board real antenna. Conventional SAR techniques assume a single reflection of transmitted waveforms from targets. Nevertheless, today¿s new scenes force SAR systems to work in urban environments. Consequently, multiple-bounce returns are added to direct-scatter echoes. We refer to these as ghost images, since they obscure true target image and lead to poor resolution. By analyzing the quadratic phase error (QPE), this paper demonstrates that Earth¿s curvature influences the defocusing degree of multipath returns. In addition to the QPE, other parameters such as integrated sidelobe ratio (ISLR), peak sidelobe ratio (PSLR), contrast and entropy provide us with the tools to identify direct-scatter echoes in images containing undesired returns coming from multipath.

New Technique for Static Target Detection in Dense-Multipath Urban Environments

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images a target region reflectivity function in the multi-dimensional spatial domain of range and cross-range with a finer azimuth resolution than the one provided by any on-board real antenna. Conventional SAR techniques assume a single reflection of transmitted waveforms from targets. Nevertheless, new uses of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for civilian-security applications force SAR systems to work in much more complex scenes such as urban environments. Consequently, multiple-bounce returns are additionally superposed to direct-scatter echoes. They are known as ghost images, since they obscure true target image and lead to poor resolution. All this may involve a significant problem in applications related to surveillance and security. In this work, an innovative multipath mitigation technique is presented in which Time Reversal (TR) concept is applied to SAR images when the target is concealed in clutter, leading to TR-SAR technique. This way, the effect of multipath is considerably reduced ?or even removed?, recovering the lost resolution due to multipath propagation. Furthermore, some focusing indicators such as entropy (E), contrast (C) and Rényi entropy (RE) provide us with a good focusing criterion when using TR-SAR.

Modelado y Mitigación de Fenómenos de Multitrayecto en Imágenes Radar mediante Técnicas basadas en Inversión Temporal

Las técnicas SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar, radar de apertura sintética) e ISAR (Inverse SAR, SAR inverso) son sistemas radar coherentes de alta resolución, capaces de proporcionar un mapa de la sección radar del blanco en el dominio espacial de distancia y acimut. El objetivo de ambas técnicas radica en conseguir una resolución acimutal más fina generando una apertura sintética a partir del movimiento relativo entre radar y blanco. Los radares imagen complementan la labor de los sistemas ópticos e infrarrojos convencionales, especialmente en condiciones meteorológicas adversas. Los sistemas SAR e ISAR convencionales se diseñan para iluminar blancos en situaciones de línea de vista entre sensor y blanco. Por este motivo, presentan un menor rendimiento en escenarios complejos, como por ejemplo en bosques o entornos urbanos, donde los retornos multitrayecto se superponen a los ecos directos procedentes de los blancos. Se conocen como "imágenes fantasma", puesto que enmascaran a los verdaderos blancos y dan lugar a una calidad visual pobre, complicando en gran medida la detección del blanco. El problema de la mitigación del multitrayecto en imágenes radar adquiere una relevancia teórica y práctica. En esta Tesis Doctoral, se hace uso del concepto de inversión temporal (Time Reversal, TR) para mejorar la calidad visual de las imágenes SAR e ISAR eliminando las "imágenes fantasma" originadas por la propagación multitrayecto (algoritmos TR-SAR y TR-ISAR, respectivamente). No obstante, previamente a la aplicación de estas innovadoras técnicas de mitigación del multi-trayecto, es necesario resolver el problema geométrico asociado al multitrayecto. Centrando la atención en la mejora de las prestaciones de TR-ISAR, se implementan una serie de técnicas de procesado de señal avanzadas antes y después de la etapa basada en inversión temporal (el eje central de esta Tesis). Las primeras (técnicas de pre-procesado) están relacionadas con el multilook averaging, las transformadas tiempo-frecuencia y la transformada de Radon, mientras que las segundas (técnicas de post-procesado) se componen de un conjunto de algoritmos de superresolución. En pocas palabras, todas ellas pueden verse como un valor añadido al concepto de TR, en lugar de ser consideradas como técnicas independientes. En resumen, la utilización del algoritmo diseñado basado en inversión temporal, junto con algunas de las técnicas de procesado de señal propuestas, no deben obviarse si se desean obtener imágenes ISAR de gran calidad en escenarios con mucho multitrayecto. De hecho, las imágenes resultantes pueden ser útiles para posteriores esquemas de reconocimiento automático de blancos (Automatic Target Recognition, ATR). Como prueba de concepto, se hace uso tanto de datos simulados como experimentales obtenidos a partir de radares de alta resolución con el fin de verificar los métodos propuestos.

Anticorrelation between Ion Acceleration and Nonlinear Coherent Structures from Laser-Underdense Plasma Interaction

In laser-plasma experiments, we observed that ion acceleration from the Coulomb explosion of the plasma channel bored by the laser, is prevented when multiple plasma instabilities such as filamentation and hosing, and nonlinear coherent structures (vortices/post-solitons) appear in the wake of an ultrashort laser pulse. The tailoring of the longitudinal plasma density ramp allows us to control the onset of these insabilities. We deduced that the laser pulse is depleted into these structures in our conditions, when a plasma at about 10% of the critical density exhibits a gradient on the order of 250 {\mu}m (gaussian fit), thus hindering the acceleration. A promising experimental setup with a long pulse is demonstrated enabling the excitation of an isolated coherent structure for polarimetric measurements and, in further perspectives, parametric studies of ion plasma acceleration efficiency.

Influence of the application of Jasmonic Acid and Benzoic Acid on Watermelon fruit quality.

In watermelon crops in Southeastern Spain, important thermal differences appear during the first stages of plant development that can affect them. This work shows the effect of applying jasmonic acid and benzoic acid (JA+BA), inductors of systemic acquired resistance (SAR) and induced systemic resistance (ISR), respectively, on fruit quality parameters from a crop in a greenhouse in Southeastern Spain, where crops face a remarkable abiotic stress. We assessed two treatments of JA+BA, T1 (500+500 ppm), T2 (2000+2000 ppm) and a control test using an experimental design of randomized blocks with four replications. The results obtained for the parameters assessed (ºBrix, flesh firmness, rind thickness, polar and equatorial diameter) did not show statistically significant differences. The results showed that there was no metabolic cost in the plants when applying the assessed treatments of JA+BA.

Effect of the application of jasmonic acid and benzoic acid on grafted watermelons yield under greenhouse conditions in the southeast of Spain for mitigation of stress

One of the main problems of watermelon crops in Sou theast Spain is the thermal difference because of c limatic conditions that appear during the first stages of the crop. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of inducing the systemic acq uired resistance (SAR) and the induced systemic resistance (ISR) through the application of jasmonic ac id (JA) and benzoic acid (BA), respectively, to counter the abiotic stress. We assessed two treatments of JA and BA, T1 (500 mg·kg-1 + 500 mg·kg -1 ) and T 2 (2000 mg·kg -1 + 2000 mg·kg -1), as well as a control test using an experimental design of randomized blocks with four replications. The results obtained for kg·m -2, fruits/m², kg/plant and fruits/plant did not show statistically significant differences. However, we obtained statistically sig nificant differences in the average fruit weight co mpared with the control test in the two experiments carried out in 2009 and 2010. The results showed that there was no metabolic cost in the plants when applying the assessed treatments of JA and BA.

Comparativa de las medidas de emisiones electromagnéticas en las normativas europea y americana para teléfonos duales

El objetivo del presente Proyecto Fin de Grado es la realización de una comparativa de los resultados obtenidos en las medidas de SAR (tasa de absorción específica) y potencia utilizando la normativa europea CENELEC (basada en la del IEC) y la americana FCC (basada en la del IEEE) para distintos dispositivos móviles duales. En primer lugar se ha realizado el estudio de sus características de potencia y de SAR, viendo la variación que hay con respecto a las distintas normativas y rangos de frecuencias. En algunos casos, aunque funcionan sin problema alguno en las diferentes bandas, la diferencia de niveles de emisiones obtenidos en las diferentes bandas puede ser notable. Como se ha comentado al comienzo, se han utilizado diferentes dispositivos duales y se realizaron en ellos las medidas pertinentes utilizando las diferentes normativas y el procedimiento indicado en cada una de ellas. Para observar las diferencias concretas que pudieran existir al utilizar las diferentes normativas, las medidas se han realizado en todas las bandas de funcionamiento del dispositivo y para cada una de ellas se han aplicado las diferentes normativas. Con esto se pretende evaluar si pudiera existir alguna discrepancia en los dispositivos que tienen el certificado de conformidad para una norma concreta cuando se utiliza en otra banda que no es exactamente la banda de utilización de esa norma. En resumen, se quería comprobar que un dispositivo que está certificado con la norma de una región, por ejemplo Europa (900 y 1800 MHz), también cumple si se utiliza en otra región, por ejemplo América (850 y 1900 MHz). La realización práctica del presente PFG se ha hecho en las instalaciones del Laboratorio de Radiofrecuencia de la Secretaría de Estado de Telecomunicación y para la Sociedad de la Información ubicado en El Casar (Guadalajara). En concreto se utilizó el robot articulado movible DASY4 y el software para su control DASY 52.8, disponible en el “banco de medida de Campos Electromagnéticos (Sala de SAR)”. La duración estimada del presente PFG ha sido aproximadamente de cuatro meses. Para llevar a cabo el presente PFG, se dispuso de todo tipo de material y recursos puestos a disposición por el Ministerio de Industria, Turismo y Comercio en el propio laboratorio, así como de los distintos terminales móviles duales con los que se realizaron las medidas pertinentes. Como bibliografía básica se han utilizado las diferentes normas indicadas anteriormente, es decir la norma europea CENELEC (basada en la del IEC) y la americana FCC (basada en la del IEEE), así como manuales de los equipos implicados en el bando de medida de SAR: analizadores de redes, robot articulado y software de control, así como el resto de dispositivos utilizados en las medidas. ABSTRACT. The goal of this Final Degree Project is to perform a comparison of the results obtained in SAR measurements (specific absorption rate) and power using the European standards CENELEC (based on IEC Regulation) and the American FCC (based on IEEE Regulation) to different mobile dual devices. If first place it was made the study of its power and SAR features, seeing that there is shift with respect to the different standards and frequency ranges. In some cases, although they work without any problem in different bands, the difference in levels of emissions obtained in the different bands can be significant. As mentioned at the beginning, different dual devices were used and relevant measurements were taken from them using the different standards and the procedure in each one of them. To see the specific differences that may exist when using the different standards, the measurements were made in all bands of the device operation and to each one it has been applied in the different standards. This attempted to assess whether there could be some discrepancy in the devices that have the certificate of compliance to a specify standard when used in another band that is not exactly the used band of this standard. To sum up, it was required to verify that a device which is certified to the standard of a region, for example (900 and 1800 MHz), also verifies if it is used in another region, for example America (850 and 1900 MHz). The practical realization of this Final Degree Project was made in the facilities of the Radio Frequency Laboratory of the Ministry of State for Telecommunications and the Information Society located in El Casar (Guadalajara). Specifically, the movable articulated robot DASY4 was used and the control software DASY 52.8, available in the “Measure Electromagnetic Field testbench (SAR room)”. The duration of this Final Degree Project has benn about four months. To carry out the present project, all kinds of materials and resources were provided by the Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Trade in its own laboratory, as well as the different mobile dual terminals with which relevant measurements were made. As basic references the different standards indicated above has been used, that is to say the European standard CENELEC (based on IEC standard) and the American FCC (based on IEEE standard), as well as the equipment manuals involved in the SAR measure testbench: network analyzers, articulated robot and control software, as well as the rest of the devices used in the measurements.
