基于导航数据的Ka波段InSAR成像处理与分析

Ka-band InSAR Imaging and Analysis Based on IMU Data

与其它波段相比,毫米波干涉SAR(InSAR)具有精度高、体积小的特点,是目前干涉SAR研究的重要方向之一。但由于较短的波长,其也给成像处理和干涉相位提取带来了一定困难。该文利用毫米波段干涉SAR数据,采用流结构后向投影(BP)算法结合IMU进行了毫米波SAR成像和干涉相位分析。研究发现,由于毫米波波长短,对天线相位中心变化更为敏感,为了保证系统的干涉相位,必须利用IMU数据进行精确的运动误差补偿。通过实测数据验证了采用各自计算天线相位中心的策略,后向投影算法可以在成像过程中精确补偿平地相位。

Compared with other bands, the millimeter wave Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar （InSAR） has high accuracy and small size, which is a hot topic in InSAR research. On the other hand, shorter wavelength causes difficulties in 2D imaging and interferometric phase extraction. In this study, the imaging and phase performance of the streaming Back Projection （BP） method combined with IMU data are analyzed and discussed on the basis of actual Ka-band InSAR data. It is found that because the wavelength of the Ka-band is short, it is more sensitive to the antenna phase-center history. To ensure the phase-preserving capacity, the IMU data must be used with accurate motion error compensation. Furthermore, during data processing, we verify the flat-earth-removing capacity of the BP algorithm that calculates and compensates the master and slave antenna phase centers individually.
