Monitoring Rice Phenology Based on Backscattering Characteristics of Multi-Temporal RADARSAT-2 Datasets

Remote Sensing, 2018
Accurate estimation and monitoring of rice phenology is necessary for the management and yield prediction of rice. The radar backscattering coefficient, one of the most direct and accessible parameters has been proved to be capable of retrieving rice ...

SAR tomography development for Radarsat-2

2011 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2011
Presently, a standard SAR image is obtained using two-dimensional information acquired in a single pass monostatic acquisition. The third dimension of the image is folded in the 2D space based on the range information. With the availability of large datasets acquired with high resolution and from slightly different positions it was shown that amplitude

Countdown for RADARSAT-2 system operations

Proceedings. 2005 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2005. IGARSS '05., 2005
RADARSAT-1 has been operating for over nine years as the world's first commercial space-borne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) remote sensing system. RADARSAT-2 provides for a continuation of the RADARSAT-1 services, enhanced performance, new features, and a more commercial approach to both the development and operation of the system.

Polarimetric calibration for RADARSAT-2

IGARSS 2000. IEEE 2000 International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium. Taking the Pulse of the Planet: The Role of Remote Sensing in Managing the Environment. Proceedings (Cat. No.00CH37120), 2002
The RADARSAT-2 SAR currently under development will be required to operate in many modes, including a fully polarimetric mode with at least 30 beams. An efficient means for achieving and maintaining polarimetric calibration of these beams is needed, and the paper describes the work that has been performed to define and validate a method based on ...

RADARSAT-2 mission update

IGARSS 2001. Scanning the Present and Resolving the Future. Proceedings. IEEE 2001 International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (Cat. No.01CH37217), 2002
RADARSAT-2, scheduled for launch in 2003, will be the next Canadian commercial Earth Observation SAR satellite. The past few years have seen a dramatically different evolution of the RADARSAT-2 program from the original proposal in both the baseline design and primary sub-contractors.

Image quality and calibration of RADARSAT-2

2009 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2009
RADARSAT-2 has 177 operational imaging modes. Versions of each of these modes are available either for left-or right-looking imaging, and most modes allow images to be generated for any of the four linear polarization combinations (HH, VV, HV, VH). To support these modes there are currently 1816 sets of beam coefficients and 16 digitized pulse forms ...
