Abstract
A computer system for decompressing synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images includes a database for storing SAR images to be decompressed, and a processor for decompressing a SAR image from the database. The decompressing includes receiving the SAR image, performing a dynamic range compression on the SAR image, and quantizing the compressed SAR image. The quantized compressed SAR image is then decompressed by applying an anistropic diffusion algorithm thereto.
