Abstract :
Layover and shadow are ubiquitous phenomenon in SAR images because of geometric relation of SAR imaging. In the configuration of dual-antenna airborne InSAR systems, identification of the layover and shadow become an important procedure for image interpretation and terrain correction in the ideal conditions of image acquirement (almost no effect of spatial, temporal decoration and thermal noise, etc).
