Polarimetric SAR image despeckling using bandelet transform based on additive–multiplicative speckle model

Efficient speckle filtering algorithms are required for the effective use of polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technology in remote sensing and surveillance applications. Nevertheless many techniques have been proposed over the past two decades to decrease the speckle noise in polarimetric SAR images, they are all based on the multiplicative speckle noise model. In order to fully utilise...
