ITU-R RS.1749 Annex 1 Mitigation technique for interference to spaceborne SARs 1 Introduction At some location

10、s on Earth, bright lines appear in the images of the L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar/Japanese Earth Resources Satellite-1 (L-SAR/JERS-1). These bright lines are due to harmful radio frequency interference (RFI) from terrestrial radars. It has been shown that it is possible to eliminate the interfere

11、nce that causes these bright lines by conducting frequency analysis of the input data. The use of this technique will make it possible to resolve the current problem of RFI to SARs operating in the 1 215-1 300 MHz band. 2 Method and results 2.1 Method The power level of the interfering signal is lar

12、ger than that of the desired signal of the SAR as the interfering signal is a direct emission from the transmitter of terrestrial radars. So, when a Fourier transformation on the received signal is performed, the interfering wave components appear as spikes on the frequency axis. Focusing on these c

13、haracteristics, as a pre-processing operation of range compression, we compare the power of each frequency “bin” with both the power spectra taken by Fourier transformation from the received signal and the original SAR signal (assuming that each components total power is equal to the desired compone

14、nt of the received signal) and 0 is adopted for the power of the specified frequency “bins” that have more power than expected (hereinafter referred to as “filtering”). Furthermore, considering that the interference components that are not correlated with the SAR signal are suppressed by about 30 dB

15、 through range compression, and to prevent original signal loss, a 3 dB or more difference is adopted as the criterion between the desired signal and the interference in this case. When processed using longer time units, there is a tendency for spiked frequencies to scatter widely among the frequenc

16、y spectrum and occasionally to result in the loss of the desired signal. For this reason, the received signal is divided into appropriate segments and then processed by methods such as Fourier transformation. (In this process, 1 024 azimuth lines are regarded as 1 segment.) 2.2 Interference suppress

17、ion process Specific procedures for the interference suppression process are as follows: Step 1 : Divide received signal, including interference, into small segments Signal of segment: Sr= received signal including interference, fr= SAR reference signal (power adjusted with Sr)Step 2 : Apply Fourier

18、 transformation to each segment Transformed spectrum: F(Sr), F(fr) Step 3 : Compare power in each frequency bin Compare |F(Sr)| to |F(fr)| Rec. ITU-R RS.1749 3 Step 4 : Identify frequency bins containing interference I = |F(Sr)| |F(fr)| 3 dB Step 5 : Generate filter Filter: A(): I 3 dB A() = 0, I 200 15/60
