The invention discloses an SAR image transmission method based on
compressed sensing and channel self-adaption. The SAR image transmission method comprises the steps that first, input SAR images are divided into small images with the same size; direction elevating and
wavelet transformation are conducted on each small image; zero setting is conducted on coefficients with
small amplitude values, only large coefficients in a small proportion are reserved, and then random measurement is conducted on a
wavelet coefficient by a
random matrix; then quantization is conducted on measurement values. Sampling values after being quantized are packaged before transmission. Random drop and error codes are added in a
simulation transmission channel. The
inverse operation of the above steps, namely, packaging,
inverse quantization,
wavelet coefficient reconstruction, wavelet inverse transformation and image combination, are conducted at a receiving end. According to the SAR image transmission method based on the
compressed sensing and channel self-adaption,
compressed sensing is used as an
encoder of the SAR images, only two times of
matrix multiplication are needed in the encoding process, and encoding of the SAR images is made to be simple. Due to the fact that an encoding end of the SAR images is placed in flight equipment such as an unmanned plane generally, the
encoder is as simple as possible. The compressed sensing is introduced to be used as the compression
encoder of the SAR images, and the problem that encoding of the SAR images is complex is solved.
