Abstract: The present study evaluates the accuracy of Triangulation, Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and orthoimage generated by Cartosat-1 data by using Rational Polynomial Coefficient’s (RPC’s) provided with the Cartosat-1 satellite stereo (PAN) data. The study area is taken as Jaipur city, Rajasthan. The data acquired over Jaipur, on 18 May’ 2005 was analysed. The stereopair comprises of terrain ranging from plain area, agriculture fields, urban area, waterbody and Aravalli hill range. A Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) survey was conducted to collect ground control points (GCPs) for satellite triangulation, DEM generation, orthoimage generation and subsequent analysis for accuracy assessment. Eighteen GCPs were measured through DGPS survey. Twelve GCPs are used for triangulation and six GCPs were used as check points. The overall RMSE for satellite triangulation is 0.753 pixel. Horizontal accuracy of 2.08 m and 1.74 m is achieved in X and Y direction, respectively. The vertical accuracy of 3.72 m has been assessed separately also by using independent check point in highly varying terrain.Abstract: The present study evaluates the accuracy of Triangulation, Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and orthoimage generated by Cartosat-1 data by using Rational Polynomial Coefficient’s (RPC’s) provided with the Cartosat-1 satellite stereo (PAN) data.

Abstract: In this paper, we address the problem of Through The Wall (TTW) detection with the emerging radar concept that is the Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar. At first, near field and through the wall propagation effects on electromagnetic waves are adressed then a MIMO frequency signal model is given and the advantages of a MIMO scheme for the complex task of TTW detection is discussed. Then image formation with beamforming processing is derived. Finally, the proposed imaging method is implemented on numerical signals obtained by FDTD computations considering through cinder blocks walls propagation. The obtained images for a scenario with one or two targets are presented. Then the experimental setup is exposed and the realised MIMO radar prototype is described. Finally, experimental results of radar imaging through a cinder block wall are shown.Abstract: In this paper, we address the problem of Through The Wall (TTW) detection with the emerging radar concept that is the Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar.
