Filtering Techniques to reduce Speckle Noise and Image Quality  Enhancement methods on Satellite Images

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2013, Vol 15, Issue 4

Abstract

 Noise in images is the vital factor which degrades the quality of the images. Reducing noise from the satellite images, medical images etc., is a challenge for the researchers in digital image processing. Several  approaches are there for noise reduction. Generally speckle noise is commonly found in Synthetic Aperture  Radar (SAR) satellite images and medical images. This research paper put forward some of the filtering  techniques for the removal of speckle noise from the satellite images, which enhances the quality of the images.  Although many filters are available for speckle reduction, some filters are best suited for SAR images are used  for which the statistical parameters are calculated for the output images obtained from all the filters. The  statistical measures SNR, PSNR, RMSE and CoC are compared. The output images corresponding to the best  statistical values are displayed along with the filters name and corresponding values of the statistical measures
