The spaceborne interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) technique has become a useful tool to obtain the surface elevation or deformation. The multi-baseline InSAR technique is capable of fusing data from multiple channels for interferometric processing and improving the accuracy of elevation estimation of the observed scenes. In this paper, we study the joint distribution to statistically characterize the interferometric phases of multi-baseline InSAR. The baseline parameters are sought based on the second-order moment of the interferometric phase joint probability density function (PDF). The study done in this thesis provides a basis for the design of parameters for multi-baseline interferometric systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
