Radio Frequency Interference Signature Detection in Radar Remote Sensing Image Using Semantic Cognition Enhancement Network
2022
Radio frequency interference (RFI) is a significant threat to accurate microwave remote sensing. The RFI signals manifest themselves in unpredictable locations and patterns in the image, which will cause measurement distortion and image degradation or even lead to wrong retrievals of the geophysical parameters. Accurate detection of RFI artifacts is a prerequisite step to preserve the overall quality of remote sensing quality. In this article, a semantic cognitive enhancement network for RFI signature detection is proposed. It employs an encoder–decoder architecture, which incorporates the atrous spatial pyramid pooling, depthwise convolution, and self-attentional mechanism. Rather than detecting the existence of RFI artifacts for an entire image, the proposed scheme can realize RFI recognition in a pixelwise manner without setting predefined thresholds. Extensive experimental results on diverse scenarios in Sentinel-1 images with various RFI types are provided, which demonstrates robust detection performance for both strong and weak interference without requiring a large number of training samples.
