| Summary: | As the resolution and data volume of remote sensing imagery continue to grow, achieving efficient compression without sacrificing reconstruction quality remains a major challenge, given that traditional handcrafted codecs often fail to balance rate-distortion performance and computational complexity, while deep learning-based approaches offer superior representational capacity. However, challenges remain in achieving a balance between fine-detail adaptation and computational efficiency. Mamba, a state–space model (SSM)-based architecture, offers linear-time complexity and excels at capturing long-range dependencies in sequences. It has been adopted in remote sensing compression tasks to model long-distance dependencies between pixels. However, despite its effectiveness in global context aggregation, Mamba’s uniform bidirectional scanning is insufficient for capturing high-frequency structures such as edges and textures. Moreover, existing visual state–space (VSS) models built upon Mamba typically treat all channels equally and lack mechanisms to dynamically focus on semantically salient spatial regions. To address these issues, we present an innovative architecture for distant sensing image compression, called the Multi-scale Channel Global Mamba Network (MGMNet). MGMNet integrates a spatial–channel dynamic weighting mechanism into the Mamba architecture, enhancing global semantic modeling while selectively emphasizing informative features. It comprises two key modules. The Wavelet Transform-guided Local Structure Decoupling (WTLS) module applies multi-scale wavelet decomposition to disentangle and separately encode low- and high-frequency components, enabling efficient parallel modeling of global contours and local textures. The Channel–Global Information Modeling (CGIM) module enhances conventional VSS by introducing a dual-path attention strategy that reweights spatial and channel information, improving the modeling of long-range dependencies and edge structures. We conducted extensive evaluations on three distinct remote sensing datasets to assess the MGMNet. The results of the investigations revealed that MGMNet outperforms the current SOTA models across various performance metrics. |
