"Written for students, remote sensing specialists, researchers and SAR system designers, this practical new reference shows you how to produce quality SAR images with respect to inter-ferometrical applications using different algorithms. Processing of SAR Data shows how SAR imagery is formed, how interfero-metry SAR images are created, and gives you a detailed mathematical description of different focussing algorithms with special emphasis in interferometry. The book describes in a comprehensive manner new methods and algorithms for inter-ferometric processing of SAR data. It provides a general description with strong emphasis on system and signal theory.
In this context a study is presented which derives a new, nonlinear, two-dimensional, space-variant SAR processing algorithm. A comparison is presented of different SAR focussing algorithms by making use of a uniform starting point, the two-dimensional point target spectrum. With regard to subpixel accuracy, a method is introduced for the co-registration process. Based on the geometrical effects of the side looking geometry, computationally efficient algorithms are developed to correct foreshortening, shadowing and layover. Based on a method of automatically generating reference heights, the outfinal SAR data product is geocoded."--BOOK JACKET.
