Experimental Results and Algorithm Analysis of DEM Generation Using Bistatic SAR Interferometry With Stationary Receiver
This paper presents the theory, algorithm, and results of a new bistatic interferometry synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) method. It employs the data acquired in an innovative bistatic configuration, which uses the orbital sensors as transmitters of opportunity and the stationary receivers on the ground, to generate a digital elevation model (DEM). In the bistatic spaceborne/stationary InSAR configuration, the interferometric phase only depends on the target-receiver range, which could not be obtained directly from the measured bistatic range. Therefore, the conventional transforming relationship between the interferometric phase and the topographic height is no longer practical. In order to solve the problem, we introduce a new conversion relationship between the interferometric phase and the topographic height, which is derived by the model of the ellipsoidal projection in the bistatic configuration. Meanwhile, the error analysis of the new conversion is carried out through a simulation. Both the simulated and measured data are used to test and verify the feasibility of the new bistatic InSAR method. In the spaceborne/stationary InSAR experiment, YaoGan-3 (an L-band spaceborne SAR system launched by China) was selected as the transmitter and two stationary receivers were mounted on the top of a tall building. The generated DEM of high quality shows that the presented method performs very well in the bistatic InSAR data process.
