This study investigates speckle noise reduction techniques for Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) space data, a crucial step in enhancing the clarity and usability of SAR images. The researchers compare six distinct methods: Lee Filtering, Frost Filtering, Kuan Filtering, Gaussian Filtering, Median Filtering, and Bilateral Filtering. These filters were applied to Alaska Satellite Facility (ASF) datasets, and their performance was evaluated using metrics like Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Mean Squared Error (MSE), Structural Similarity Index (SSIM), Equivalent Number of Looks (ENL), and Speckle Suppression Index (SSI). The findings suggest that both Lee and Kuan Filters are effective, with the choice depending on the specific application requirements. This work provides valuable insights into optimizing SAR image processing, which has significant implications for remote sensing, environmental monitoring, and geological surveying.

This study looks at ways to make space images clearer by reducing noise. The researchers tested six different methods to do this and compared how well they worked. They used data from a satellite facility in Alaska and measured their success using special formulas. The results show that two of the methods are very effective, but which one is best depends on what you want to use the image for. This research can help us get better images from space, which is important for things like monitoring the environment and finding natural resources.
