The Extraction of InSAR Information from Imagery of a Wind-Blown Tree Canopy with a Ground-Based SAR Keith Morrison & Muhammad Yasin Department of Aerospace, Power and Sensors, University of Cranfield, Shrivenham, UK & DLR, Institut für Hochfrequenztechnik und Radarsysteme Weßling, Germany

The GB-SAR System Portable SAR / InSAR Imaging System All-weather L through X-band (1-12GHz) Fully polarimetric VV,HH,VH,HV

Rationale Particular open questions relate to the conditions under which PolInSAR produces accurate measurements of biomass, with respect to: canopy structure (species, density, height distribution) technical sensor specifications imaging conditions (spatial and temporal)

Presentation Can the GB-SAR system be used to obtain meaningful PolInSAR measurements of forest canopies? Considerations GB-SAR imaging timescale on order of tens of minutes Can expect wind-induced target motion Can the results be related to air- and space-borne ?

InSAR Phase

InSAR Phase vs Coherence The curves show the frequency of occurrence with phase for varying coherence ranges. The outermost curve is over the entire coherence range The next innermost curve shows the distribution 0.1-1, then 0.2-1, and so on. The innermost curve shows the phase distribution

Non-Zero Baseline

Conclusions Meaningful SAR Imaging of trees is feasible Wind motion produces spreading of IPR into broadband unstructured azimuthal arcs Good coherences obtained by observation in low wind conditions Recovery of ‘static’ backscatter pattern by temporal averaging Averaging also improves the coherence However, latter might bias InSAR phase / height retrieval to stronger coherent features in canopy Investigation into whether the GB-SAR system can be used for InSAR & PolInSAR
