Signal processing for remote sensing {Special issue editorial]

There is a wide range of applications where advanced signal processing techniques are of great significance. The scientists working on signal processing related topics always bring with them new ideas that are often successfully applied in modern technology such as radar, remote sensing, biomedical applications, plus, of course, voice and image processing. Many of the same ideas and algorithms are applied in other fields, usually under different names. Scientists often repeat research already done by their peers in related disciplines to find the solutions for their own problems.
