Abstract

An apparatus for processing an image is provided. The apparatus includes at least one processor, and a memory electrically connected to the at least one processor, wherein the memory stores instructions causing the at least one processor to perform a process of identifying a first image and a second image collected in a time series, acquiring first layer information corresponding to a first object from the first image, acquiring second layer information corresponding to a second object from the second image, acquiring a radio propagation parameter based on the first layer information and the second layer information, and acquiring radio frequency design information based on the radio propagation parameter.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An apparatus for processing an image, the apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
a memory electrically connected to the at least one processor,
wherein the memory stores instructions causing the at least one processor to perform a process of:
identifying a first image for a region at a first time point and a second image for the region at a second time point,
acquiring first layer information corresponding to a first object in the region from the first image,
acquiring second layer information corresponding to a second object in the region from the second image,
acquiring a radio propagation parameter based on information for the first object and the second object determined to be overlapped according to the first layer information and the second layer information, and
acquiring radio frequency design information based on the radio propagation parameter.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first image and the second image are satellite images.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first layer information is acquired based on information on a boundary of the first object in the first image and the second layer information is acquired based on information on a boundary of the second object in the second image.

4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first layer information and the second layer information are displayed as a first object layer and a second object layer in a third image.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the radio propagation parameter includes information on an overlapping area between the first layer information and the second layer information.

6. The apparatus of claim 5 ,
wherein the radio propagation parameter further includes density information of at least one terminal, and
wherein the density information of the at least one terminal is identified based on the information on the overlapping area between the first layer information and the second layer information.

7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the radio propagation parameter includes at least one of a jamming level, a propagation path loss rate, a dielectric permittivity, a diffraction coefficient, or a penetration ratio.

8. The apparatus of claim 1 ,
wherein the radio propagation parameter further includes attribute information of the first object and attribute information of the second object, and
wherein the attribute information of the first object is identified based on the first layer information, and the attribute information of the second object is identified based on the second layer information.

9. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the radio frequency design information includes at least one of information on positions of installation of radio frequencies or information on a number of installations of radio frequencies.

10. A method of processing an image, the method comprising:
identifying a first image for a region at a first time point and a second image for the region at a second time point;
acquiring first layer information corresponding to a first object in the region from the first image;
acquiring second layer information corresponding to a second object in the region from the second image;
acquiring a radio propagation parameter based on information for the first object and the second object determined to be overlapped according to the first layer information and the second layer information; and
acquiring radio frequency design information based on the radio propagation parameter.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first image and the second image are satellite images.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first layer information is acquired based on information on a boundary of the first object in the first image and the second layer information is acquired based on information on a boundary of the second object in the second image.

13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first layer information and the second layer information are displayed as a first object layer and a second object layer in a third image.

14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the radio propagation parameter includes information on an overlapping area between the first layer information and the second layer information.

15. The method of claim 14 ,
wherein the radio propagation parameter further includes density information of at least one terminal, and
wherein the density information of the at least one terminal is identified based on the information on the overlapping area between the first layer information and the second layer information.

16. The method of claim 10 , wherein the radio propagation parameter includes at least one of a jamming level, a propagation path loss rate, a dielectric permittivity, a diffraction coefficient, or a penetration ratio.

17. The method of claim 10 ,
wherein the radio propagation parameter further includes attribute information of the first object and attribute information of the second object, and
wherein the attribute information of the first object is identified based on the first layer information, and the attribute information of the second object is identified based on the second layer information.

18. The method of claim 10 , wherein the radio frequency design information includes at least one of information on positions of installation of radio frequencies or information on a number of installations of radio frequencies.

19. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer program codes stored therein to perform a method of processing an image when executed by at least one processor, the method comprising:
identifying a first image for a region at a first time point and a second image for the region at a second time point;
acquiring first layer information corresponding to a first object from the first image;
