  • 摘要: 该文介绍了一种L波段机载重轨干涉合成孔径雷达(SAR)系统及其开展的重轨干涉SAR飞行试验与数据反演研究。重点介绍了系统内定标方法、基于差分全球定位系统/惯性测量单元(DGPS/IMU)组合导航系统的重轨干涉SAR(InSAR)成像处理方法、残余运动误差(RME)估计和补偿算法以及干涉SAR模型下高程反演方法。在实测飞行试验数据中选择了两块具有代表性的试验区域,详细分析了重轨干涉SAR数据的相干性和残余运动补偿的效果,并通过干涉反演得到试验区的高程图(DEM),利用地面测量点验证得到两试验区的高程精度分别为3.40 m和2.85 m。实验结果表明该系统具有重轨干涉SAR数据获取及高精度高程反演能力,这对机载重轨干涉SAR系统设计及重点区域地形测绘具有重要借鉴意义。在飞行航迹控制较好的情况下,该系统可用于差分干涉SAR、极化干涉SAR以及层析SAR等的研究。
