摘要
A novel multi-baseline phase unwrapping algorithm based on the unscented particle filter for interferometric synthetic aperture radar (INSAR) technology application is proposed. The proposed method is not constrained by the nonlinearity of the problem and is independent of noise statistics, and performs noise eliminating and phase unwrapping at the same time by combining with an unscented particle filter with a path-following strategy and an omni-directional local phase slope estimator. Results obtained from multi-baseline synthetic data and single-baseline real data show the performance of the proposed method.
