본 논문에서는 선형 배열 균일 안테나에 입사하는 신호들의 상관행렬을 강건하게 생성하여 부공간 기반 기법의 도래각 추정 성능을 향상시키는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존의 부공간 기반 도래각 추정 기법은 상관행렬을 구한 후 신호 부공간과 잡음 부공간으로 분리하여 도래각을 추정한다. 그러나, 낮은 SNR, 작은 개수의 스냅샷에서 구해지는 상관행렬의 성분은 안테나의 잡음 성분으로 인하여 신호 부공간을 부정확하게 추정하여 도래각 추정 성능을 저하시킨다. 따라서, 기존의 상관행렬로부터 구해지는 가상의 신호 벡터를 슬라이딩 방식으로 배열함으로써 강건한 상관행렬을 생성한다. 기존의 상관행렬과 제안하는 강건한 상관행렬의 비교 분석을 위하여, 부공간 기반 기법의 대표적 방법인 MUSIC, ESPRIT을 이용하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 계산 복잡도는 기존의 상관행렬 대비 2.5% 이내 증가하였으나, 도래각 추정성능은 RMSE 1° 기준 SNR이 MUSIC, ESPRIT 모두 3dB 이상의 우수한 도래각 추정 성능을 보였다.

Baikdu-san was a very active volcano during the Cenozoic era and is believed to be formed in late Cenozoic era. Recently it was also reported that there was a major eruption in or around 1002 A.D. and there are evidences which indicate that it is still an active volcano and a potential volcanic hazard. Remote sensing techniques have been widely used to monitor various natural hazards, including volcanic hazards. However, during an active volcanic eruption, volcanic ash can basically cover the sky and often blocks the solar radiation preventing any use of optical sensors. Synthetic aperture radar(SAR) is an ideal tool to monitor the volcanic activities and lava flows, because the wavelength of the microwave signal is considerably longer that the average volcanic ash particle size. In this study we have utilized several sets of SAR data to evaluate the utility of the space-borne SAR system. The data sets include JERS-1(L-band) SAR, and RADARSAT(C-band) data which included both standard mode and the ScanSAR mode data sets. We also utilized several sets of auxiliary data such as local geological maps and JERS-1 OPS data. The routine preprocessing and image processing steps were applied to these data sets before any attempts of classifying and mapping surface geological features. Although we computed sigma nought ($\sigma$$^{0}$) values far the standard mode RADARSAT data, the utility of sigma nought image was minimal in this study. Application of various types of classification algorithms to identify and map several stages of volcanic flows was not very successful. Although this research is still in progress, the following preliminary conclusions could be made: (1) sigma nought (RADARSAT standard mode data) and DN (JERS-1 SAR and RADARSAT ScanSAR data) have limited usefulness for distinguishing early basalt lava flows from late trachyte flows or later trachyte flows from the old basement granitic rocks around Baikdu-san volcano, (2) surface geological structure features such as several faults and volcanic lava flow channels can easily be identified and mapped, and (3) routine application of unsupervised classification methods cannot be used for mapping any types of surface lava flow patterns.
