Riverine Imaging
Abstract
Numerous sensing modalities can produce 3D data sets. Two very important surveillance modalities are video (2D space plus time) and 3D Inverse Synthetic Aperture RADAR (ISAR). It is the goal of this task to examine these specific modalities and 1) for video -- determine fundamental bounds on sub-sampling, resolution and reconstruction such that large video data volumes ean be moved through communication channels; and 2) formulate and demonstrate a 3D ISAR image reconstruction process to be used for penetrative reconstruction of river boat internals as they float by a small, low frequency RADAR. The envisioned system could provide remote, unattended river intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) for several months in a concealed package located near tropical rivers, mountain passes, and locations of special interest.
