A New Registration of Interferometric Sar: Least-squares Registration
نویسندگان
چکیده
ABSTRACT Synthetic aperture radar interferometry is an imaging technique for measuring the topography of a surface, its changes over time, and other changes in the detailed characteristics of the surface.. In order to get interference patterns, the images from two satellite passes must be registered to subpixel accuracy. In the paper, we discuss the registration of two interfering SAR images based on Least-Squares method. A novel measure is proposed to compute sum of phase difference of two SAR images, and minimized to find the optimal registration parameters. The accuracy of registration based Least-Squares method is 0.05 pixel to 0.07 pixel in our test.

Simultaneous generation and registration of SAR images
Registration of SAR images is required for interferometric processing and multitemporal analysis. A procedure which allows simultaneous generation and registration of SAR images from spaceborne sensors is presented. The procedure is based on the properties of the chirp scaling algorithm and is used in a interferometric processor to generate the interferogram, the fringes and the coherence map.

متن کاملDiscussion on the Detection and Correction of Residual Motion Errors in Airborne SAR Interferometry
This paper discusses the detection and correction of residual motion errors, appearing in airborne SAR interferograms due to the lack of precision in the navigation system. Two techniques existing in the literature to detect such errors are presented, highlighting differences and similitudes. The effects of residual motion errors are mainly two: azimuth phase undulations and azimuth registratio...
متن کاملA New Approach to Sar Interferogram Geocoding
Several geocoding methods for SAR interferometry are compared. The discussion results in the proposal of a new geocoding model. It is based on a least squares adjustment combining interferometric phase, range, Doppler centroid frequency, flight path and control point data. A complete mathematical framework for the computation of object space coordinates without approximations is presented. This...
