Nezhalska K. Statistical estimation of surface parameters in active-passive systems of remote sensing

The object of research is methods and means of remote sensing. The purpose of work is development and analysis of methods for multiparameter surface characteristics estimation accuracy improvement. Methods of the theory of estimation and statistical decisions, statistical signal processing, computer modeling are used in the work. Practical value of results consists in that they allow to increase accuracy of measurements, reliability of remote sensing data interpretation due to optimization of scattering and radiation fields processing and complexing. Scientific novelty consists in the following: 1) The method to determine potential capabilities of remote sensing systems has received the further development; 2) potential accuracy of multipleparameter estimation has been investigated for the first time; 3) limiting errors of joint scattering and radiation characteristics estimation have been calculated and investigated for the first time in view of their intercorrelation properties, the comparative analysis of remote sensing systems accuracies has been executed. Results of scientific work are implemented at: "Scientific-research institute of radiosystems"; the Center of radiophysical sounding of the Earth; National Aerospace university. Results of the work can be used for solving problems of multipleparameter estimation, determination of potential capabilities of remote sensing systems
