Abstract :
The paper presents a robust approach to image restoration that combines the properties of classical regularized iterative algorithms and robust features based on the concept of M-estimators. The approach takes into consideration the peculiarities of radar image formation to provide optimal noise removal and image restoration including suppression of ringing, and preservation of edges and fine details
