Abstract :
Enhanced SAR ocean images with dominant wave-like signatures might promote oceanographic applications. Therefore we develop a wave model based processor for wave features enhancement. Algorithm analysis and experiments based on spaceborne (ERS-2) SAR ocean image show the reasonable capabilities.
