Phase Statistics and Decorrelation in S a R Interferograms
نویسندگان
چکیده
SAR interferometry requires a thorough phase control throughout the imaging process. The phaseaccuracy is affected bydecorrelation effects between the individual surveys. The paper presents the probability density function of the interferometric phase and analyzes quantitatively the influence of decorrelation. In panicular, phase aberrations typical for SAR processors are studied. The dependence of phase bias and variance on processor parameters is demonstrated.

Phase statistics of interferograms with applications to synthetic aperture radar.
Interferometric methods are well established in optics and radio astronomy. In recent years, interferometric concepts have been applied successfully to synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and have opened up new possibilities in the area of earth remote sensing. However interferometric SAR applications require thorough phase control through the imaging process. The phase accuracy of SAR images is aff...
متن کاملA noise model for InSAR time series
Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) time series methods estimate the spatiotemporal evolution of surface deformation by incorporating information from multiple SAR interferograms. While various models have been developed to describe the interferometric phase and correlation statistics in individual interferograms, efforts to model the generalized covariance matrix that is directly ...
متن کاملAtmospheric Error, Phase Trend and Decorrelation Noise in Terrasar-x Differential Interferograms
The potential of TerraSAR-X data for deformation measurements benefits from high spatial and temporal resolution and even allow detecting higher deformation gradients compared to other sensors. However, decorrelation noise from vegetation and atmospheric effects are of greater importance because of the shorter wavelength. The extent of a TerraSAR-X scene is small compared to common scale atmosp...
متن کاملAn examination of seasonal deformation at the Portuguese Bend landslide, southern California, using radar interferometry
[1] The Portuguese Bend landslide, located on the Palos Verdes peninsula in southern California, is a slow‐moving landslide whose activity is closely tied to infiltration from rainfall. We use radar interferometry to constrain the seasonal kinematics of the landslide from 1995 to 2000. Traditional interferometric synthetic aperture radar methods estimate an average downslope displacement rate o...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Shoreline Changes Simulation Using Hybrid Genetic Algorithm of Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar
The paper has demonstrated InSAR phase unwrapping using Hybrid Genetic Algorithm (GHA). The three dimensional phase unwrapping is performed using three-dimensional best-path avoiding singularity loops (3DBPASL) algorithm. Then phase matching is implemented with 3DBPASL using Hybrid Genetic Algorithm (GHA). Further, the combination between GHA and 3DBPASL is used to eliminate the phase decorrela...
