Comparison and Analysis of Geometric Correction Models of Spaceborne SAR

Abstract: Following the development of synthetic aperture radar (SAR), SAR images have become increasingly common. Many researchers have conducted large studies on geolocation models, but little work has been conducted on the available models for the geometric correction of SAR images of different terrain. To address the terrain issue, four different models were compared and are described in this paper: a rigorous range-doppler (RD) model, a rational polynomial coefficients (RPC) model, a revised polynomial (PM) model a… Show more

“…In addition, three equations are applied to represent the relationships [ 26 ]: the SAR range equation, the SAR Doppler equation and the earth model equation. All three equations are shown as Equation ( 1 ): where R is the distance between the target and satellite platform, and are the position vector of the satellite platform and target, c is the light speed and represents the time delay; is the Doppler centroid frequency, and are the velocity vector of the satellite platform and target; is the target position vector, h is the target height relative to the earth model, and are the equatorial radius and the polar radius of the earth with , and f is a flattening factor [ 27 ].…”

“…Therefore, the production of RPCs increases the workload of users for the application of this model. Moreover, the suitability of the RFM for SAR images in mountainous areas is relatively poor, which will introduce extra fitting errors during the reconstruction for 3D geo-information [13]. Therefore, we proposed a new RD-RFM model for SAR-optical stereogrammetry which is suitable and applicable both in mountainous and urban areas.…”

“…A set of virtual GCPs are arranged in a grid-shape format on planes located at different heights. Usually the fitting accuracy of approximated RPCs is better than 5% pixels, whereas errors increased to pixel-level in areas with undulating terrain [32].…”
