Sensor modeling and image restoration for a CCD pushbroom imager

Following the development of detector technology, remote sensing image detection is being implemented with charge-coupled devices (CCD), which have promising features. The French SPOT system is the first civilian satellite sensor employing a CCD in its detection unit. In order to obtain the system transfer function (TF), a linear system model is developed in the across- and along-track directions. The overall system TF, including pixel sampling effects, is then used in the Wiener filter function to derive an optimal restoration function. A restoration line spread function (RLSF) is obtained by the inverse Fourier transform of the Wiener filter and multiplied with a window function. Simulation and empirical tests are described comparing the RLSF to standard kernels used for image resampling for geometric correction. The RLSF results in superior edge enhancement as expected.
