Abstract

The article presents multilook processing in Unfocused Synthetic Aperture Radar (Unfocused SAR). Multilook processing reduces so called speckle noise, inherent to SAR imaging, by averaging several independently obtained images. Typically, multilook is used in Focused SAR and leads to reduction of resolution. Proposed concept of multilook in Unfocused SAR reduces the variance of the speckle without deterioration of the resolution.
