Abstract: A rapid anomaly detection approach with corresponding method and system to detect anomalies in scene pixels making up a hyperspectral scene, efficiently, is presented. The approach includes tailoring an approximation of an anomaly score for each scene pixel, individually, based on an “intermediate anomaly score.” The intermediate score is computed using a portion of the terms used to compute the anomaly score. Scene pixels with low intermediate anomaly scores are removed from further processing. The remaining scene pixels are further processed, including computing anomaly scores to detect anomalies in these pixels. Advantageously, examples of the RAND approach process a few terms of all scene pixels, eliminate most scene pixels, and calculate more terms on high anomaly scoring scene pixels as needed.

Abstract: Methods for reducing dimensionality of hyperspectral image data having a number of spatial pixels, each associated with a number of spectral dimensions, include receiving sets of coefficients associated with each pixel of the hyperspectral image data, a set of basis vectors utilized to generate the sets of coefficients, and either a maximum error value or a maximum data size. The methods also include calculating, using a processor, a first set of errors for each pixel associated with the set of basis vectors, and one or more additional sets of errors for each pixel associated with one or more subsets of the set of basis vectors. Utilizing such errors calculations, an optimum size of the set of basis vectors may be ascertained, allowing for either a minimum amount of error within the maximum data size, or a minimum data size within the maximum error value.

Abstract: A method of filtering hyperspectral image data associated with a hyperspectral image to produce a detection image data having a plurality of pixels, where the detection image data is associated with the degree to which a target may be present in a pixel. The method also includes adaptively processing the detection image data to determine a background variation in the plurality of pixels. The method additionally includes establishing a plurality of spatial filters for the detection image data, where each of the plurality of spatial filters are associated with energy being received at different locations on each of the plurality of pixels, and where the outputs of the plurality of spatial filters are weighted by the variation in background. The method further includes applying each of the plurality of spatial filers to the detection image data, such that each of the plurality of pixels are associated with a selected one of the plurality of spatial filters.

Abstract: A known ground location (KGL) satellite transceiver can include a position and elevation acquisition module configured to determine a time of flight (TOF) of a pseudonoise (PN) signal and a Doppler shift in a KGL signal for use in determining an orbit of a satellite. The PN signal can include a transmitted PN signal and a transponded PN signal. The KGL signal can include a transmitted KGL signal and a transponded KGL signal. The transmitted PN signal and the transmitted KGL signal can be transmitted sequentially on a first frequency carrier from the KGL satellite transceiver to the satellite. The transponded PN signal and the transponded KGL signal can be retransmitted back sequentially on a second frequency carrier from the satellite to the KGL satellite transceiver. The first frequency carrier and the second frequency carrier use a same frequency carrier or a different frequency carrier from each other.

Abstract: A method for reducing dimensionality of hyperspectral images may include receiving a hyperspectral image having a plurality of pixels. A basis vector set including a number of members may then be established, wherein each of the members comprises a basis vector. For each of the plurality of pixels, a spectral vector for the pixel may be read and decomposed with the members of the basis vector set to derive a residual vector for the pixel. A basis vector for the pixel may then be added to the members of the basis vector set if the residual vector for the pixel has a magnitude exceeding a predetermined threshold, and the basis vector set may then be optimized to eliminate one of the members of the basis vector set, whereby the optimized basis vector set includes the number of members. A system configured to perform the method may also be provided.

Abstract: Processes and systems for use in reducing clock jitter-induced error, obtain a first sample during each cycle of a periodic analog reference signal. The sample includes an error resulting at least in part from jitter-induced timing error of the clock signal. For each respective cycle, a second sample of a discrete-time analog representation of the periodic analog reference signal is also obtained. The second sample is substantially unsusceptible to jitter-induced timing error of the clock signal. Each of the first and second samples corresponds to the same respective cycle of the clock signal. For each cycle, a respective difference between each of the first and second samples is determined. The difference is indicative of timing error of the respective cycle of the clock signal. The difference is converted to a digital representation that can be used to compensate for jitter-induced error.
