Abstract:
Radar sounders are spaceborne electromagnetic sensors specifically designed for subsurface investigations. They operate in the HF/VHF part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are widely employed for applications such as monitoring changes to the polar ice sheets of the Earth and for the study of planetary bodies (e.g. Mars) from satellite. Radar sounding of planetary bodies is a relatively young discipline both in terms of system design and data processing architectures. As a result of the current state of the art in system design, the data recorded by radar sounders are typically affected by

Abstract:
Spaceborne radar sounders are an important class of remote sensing instruments which operate by recording backscattered electromagnetic waves in the vicinity of a solid planetary body. The incoming waves are generally transmitted by the radar itself (active sounding), although external signals of opportunity can also be used (passive sounding). There are currently two major planetary radar sounders under development, both headed to the Jovian icy moons (Europa, Ganymede and Callisto). Designing a radar sounder is a very challenging process involving careful leveraging of heritage and predictiv

Abstract:
Radar sounders (RS) are active instruments that have proved to be able to profile the subsurface of planetary bodies. The design of RS instruments, as well as the interpretation of the acquired data, is a non-trivial task due to the complexity of the scenario of acquisition and the limited amount of information on the targets (especially in planetary exploration). In this context, data simulations are necessary to support the design of the radar, the development of the related processing chain, and the definition of algorithms for the automatic analysis of data. However, state-of-the-art RS s

Abstract:
In the last decade the interest in radar systems for the exploration of planetary bodies and for Earth Observation (EO) from orbit increased considerably. In this context, the main goal of this thesis is to present novel methods for the automatic analysis of planetary radar sounder (RS) signals and very high resolution (VHR) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images acquired on the Earth. Both planetary RSs and VHR SAR systems are instruments based on relatively recent technology which make it possible to acquire from orbit new types of data that before were available only in limited areas from ai

Abstract:
Radar sounders (RS) are low frequency remote sensing instruments that profile the shallow subsurface of planetary bodies providing valuable scientific information. The prediction of the RS performance and the interpretation of the target properties from the RS data are challenging due to the complex electromagnetic interaction between many acquisition variables. RS simulations address this issue by forward modeling this complex interaction and simulating the radar response. However, existing simulators require detailed and subjective modeling of the target in order to produce realistic radargr

Abstract:
Radar Sounders (RSs) are active sensors that transmit in the nadir electromagnetic (EM) waves with a low frequency in the range of High-Frequency and Very-High-Frequency and relatively wide bandwidth. Such a signal penetrates the surface and propagates in the subsurface, interacting with dielectric interfaces. This interaction yields to backscattered echoes detectable by the antenna that are coherently summed and stored in radargrams. RSs are used for planetary exploration and Earth observation for their value in investigating subsurface geological structures and processes, which reveal the pa

Abstract:
The World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) has recently reconfirmed the importance of a better understanding of the Cryosphere for advancing the analysis, modeling and prediction of climate change and its impact on the environment and society. One of the most complete collection of information about the ice sheets and glaciated areas is contained in the data (radargrams) acquired by Radar Sounder (RS) instruments. The need to better understand the structure of the ice sheets and the availability of enourmous quantities of radargrams call for the development of automatic techniques for an effi
