Abstract:
Multibaseline (MB) interferometric synthetic aperture radar phase unwrapping (PU) has the advantage of using the baseline diversity to increase the ambiguity intervals of the interferometric phases and overcome the limitation of the phase continuity assumption. One major challenge of the MB PU is that the performance of PU greatly depends on the baseline configuration. In this letter, the motion compensation algorithm is used to modify the baselines of the interferograms. Therefore, optimal baseline configuration can be used in the MB PU to improve the PU performance. Real ALOS/PALSAR data over Himalayan mountain area have been used to verify the performance of the proposed method. The experimental results show that the MB PU with modified baselines becomes more reliable.
