DATA COMPRESSION OF SYNTHETIC APERTURE RADAR(SAR) RAW DATA
合成孔径雷达原始数据压缩

First, the significance and the importance of SAR raw data compression is discussed. Then the brief history of its developmant is reviewed. Two schemes of data compression namely block adaptive quantization (BAQ) and vector quantization (VQ) is described. Finaly, the prospects for synthetic aperture radar raw data compression is looked forward.
