Abstract
Any method that permits retrieving full range (unwrapped) phase values starting from their (-pi, pi) determination (wrapped phase) can be de fined as a phase unwrapping technique. This paper addresses a new proc edure for phase unwrapping especially designed for Interferometric syn thetic aperture radar applications. The proposed algorithm is based on use of Green's first identity. Results on simulated as well as on rea l data are presented. They both confirm the excellent performance of t he procedure.
