Past and new trends in polarimetric and multidimensional SAR data Speckle noise filtering

Speckle noise represents one of the main components of the multidimensional SAR signal that limit the complete exploitation of multidimensional SAR data, and polarimetric SAR data in particular. This paper consider the main trends in the characterization and the filtering of the multidimensional Speckle noise component.
