A Novel InSAR phase denoising method via nonlocal wavelet shrinkage

摘要

In this paper, an interferometric synthetic aperture radar phase denoising method which utilizes both local sparsity of wavelet coefficients and nonlocal similarity of grouped blocks, has been proposed. The derived nonlocal wavelet shrinkage use double L1 norm restrictions, which enforce local and nonlocal sparsity constraints by efficient shrinkage operators. This method can take advantage of the coefficients of nonlocal similarity between group blocks for wavelet shrinkage, and improve the accuracy of filtering result. Experimental results in InSAR phase image denoising tasks with simulation and actual noise data show that the proposed method outperforms the state of the art with lower root-mean-square error and less noisy fringes, making it possible to effectively filtering phase noise with superior performance.
