英文摘要：

Objective Visualization of ultra wide bandwidth synthetic aperture radar （ UWB SAR） data involves mapping from a high dynamic range amplitude values to the gray values of a lower dynamic range display device. This step is vital in the processing of UWB SAR images. However, traditional visual methods are unsuitable for the processing of UWB SAR images because these methods do not consider the characters of UWB SAR and because these methods require long process- ing time. To compress the UWB SAR data dynamic range in a shorter time, a new fast visualization method based on screening data for UWB SAR images is proposed. Method In the new method, the distribution of low frequency UWB SAR data and gray-value images is first discussed to obtain easily the reasonable distribution model for UWB SAR images. A 3tr measurement and amend mapping function are used to screen the image data. Therefore, the high dynamic range of amplitude values is compressed in a small dynamic range. The quality of UWB SAR images should be evaluated to deter- mine which image is convenient for the human visual system to obtain more geographic information. Result The proposed method costs less time compared with the original method, and the performance indicators of the former are better than that of the latter. The dark pixels are also stretched appropriately, and the bright details are preserved. Moreover, the images handled by the new method are suitable for the human visual system. Conclusion Therefore, this method will have a major role in the real-time processing of UWB SAR image data.
