3 Introduction and Objectives L-band SAR ischaracterized by highersignal penetration, and the repeat-passsar interferometry can be achieved. High band width of Pi-SAR L band (50 M Hz) achieves higher resolution imaging and therepeat passinterferometric flights (Critical B perp is 400m and B perp <= 100m for higher coherence). As the preparation study ofsurface deformation monitoring usingthe airborne SAR,we conducted the Pi-SAR repeat passinterferometric flightsand InSAR processing. We derived an InSAR DE M, and discussed the accuracy and related problems forthefutureobjectives.

14 Orbit correction Flat earth corrected fringe contains undesirable fringe due to the orbital error. Unwrap the raw fringe and harmonize the theoretical unwrapped model which contains three unknowns, horizontal disp.( B), vertical disp.( r), and vertical velocity disp.( v) after the least square parameterization. Ground truth data are obtained from the Digital Elevation Model of GSI (Geophysical survey of institute) and geoids height by comparing the simulated SAR image using DEM and the SAR amplitude image. Finally retune the fringe data. Least square minimization r = r 0 + v 0 t a t ( B + r)+ ( v )t

15 Processing flow 1) generate single look complex using the band width tuning 2) co-register two images using predefined GCPs 3) Generate the co-registration frame 4) Generate the raw fringe and simulated images for master/slave images 5) Calibrate the orbit error using the simulated and the SAR images 6) Unwrap the first step flat earth corrected fringe and estimate the orbital errors using the least squared error minimization 7) Regenerate the final wrapped fringe using the regenerated orbital information using the co-registration frame 8) Unwrap the above fringes and calibrate it using the GCP 9) Convert the slant range DEM to the ground range DEM.

21 Three dimensional view of the DEM GSI-DEM Hill Urban area In-SAR DEM

22 Conclusion and future work We have conducted the experimental study to extract the DEM using the L band repeat pass airborne SAR interferometry (Pi-SAR). One image pair flying over the Tottori dune has 70 m of B perp preserving a good coherence. DEM generated from Tottori image pair was corrected for the three unknowns, height, cross track, and cross track velocity of the restituted orbit using the ground control points given from the DSI-DEM and theoretical model. The result shows some variation in the DEM but gives an accuracy order of 2.7 meter offset and standard deviation of 7.4 meter (Best case). Motion compensation is a key component for generation of the SAR image. The required accuracy for generating image is not good enough for generating DEM. Future work: Improvement of the motion compensation using the denser ground control points (GSI-DEM) and needs nonlinear orbit correction model.
