  • Abstract
    In this paper a fractal filtering technique is described and applied to Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images of urban areas. The considered technique has been originally developed for application to SAR amplitude images relevant to natural areas. In the present paper its behavior in presence of man-made objects and buildings is tested, both on simulated and actual SAR data.
