Abstract

In this paper attempt is made to improve the overall performance of a stripmap image sensor through the implementation with AI. The virtual range of scanning thus obtained could be two to three times as large as the original range. The approach suggested is mainly a predictive control with which the viewing direction of the sensor is intermittently centered at the centroid of the target information acquired during the preceding scans so that maximum amount of information on the successive target segments can be obtained. Simulation experiment conducted verifies the feasibility of the suggested approach.
