Investigation and development of Bistatic-radar configuration that capable for monitoring the wide area of plantations

Abstract

This report describes the investigation and development system for bistatic radar by using MATLAB design tool. In this project, one of the radar function had developed that can support for image processing. By using the radar image processing that applicable for radar frequency range which operates within is 8GHz-12GHz frequency band. There have six simulation process are conducted in this project,which is involved the conversion of 3D transform to 2D image, histogram graph, coloured label,adapthisteq,cropping the region of interest and enhancement process for cleared image. There were three different locations are selected during this project to identify the feature and characteristic of each image,so three different results are produced. The main purpose of this project is to monitor the wide area of plantations. These radar image are read, simulated, and identified for analysis. The simulation result depends on the level of intensity, rate of pixel image, histogram graph reading, and different of the surface area in the image captured by satellite radar.
