Tops Differential Sar Interferometry with Terrasar-x
In this paper we investigate the possibility to exploit TOPS data to measure ground displacement movements by means of Differential SAR Interferometry (DInSAR). Several critical points (i.e. coregistration) have to be faced during the data processing since, due to the TOPS signal characteristics, the interferometric chain is very sensitive to small implementation errors. The obtained results wi...
متن کاملTerraSAR-X TOPS, ScanSAR and WideScanSAR interferometric processing
The German TerraSAR-X and TanDEM-X satellites are able to acquire images operationally in ScanSAR and WideScanSAR modes and experimentally in TOPS mode. This paper gives an overview of the interferometric processing steps of burst-mode acquisitions, emphasizing the importance of the co-registration stage. A coregistration approach based on incoherent cross-correlation is presented. Interferomet...
متن کاملFirst Terrasar-x Interferometry Evaluation
The German radar satellite TerraSAR-X was launched in June 2007 [1] and is currently ending its commissioning phase. We anticipate quite different interferometric application scenarios compared to ERS1/2 and ASAR due to the X-band frequency, the short orbital repeat cycles of 11 days, the high range resolution and the spotlight mode of this sensor. During the commissioning phase we have schedul...
متن کاملTerraSAR-X Dual Receive Antenna Mode - Channel Reconstruction and Impact on the GMTI Performance
Synthetic aperture radar with multiple channels separated in along-track direction allows for GMTI such as detection of road traffic [1]. With TerraSAR-X two receive channels separated in along-track direction can either be realized through switching between the fore and aft antenna halves from pulse to pulse, or with the dual receive antenna (DRA) mode [2]. While the switching in the single ch...
متن کاملSonar Measurements in Ship Wakes Synchronous with Terrasar-x Overpasses
A pilot experiment was conducted by NSUOC and DLR in April-June 2008 in the Straits of Florida near Port Everglades, Florida in order to study the dynamics of far wakes of ships. In this experiment, a small boat with downward-looking sonar made “snake-like” sections through wakes of ships of opportunity during the TerraSAR-X overpasses. The ship identity and its parameters (length, speed, cours...
