            Abstract : 
The statistical property of prominent points in SAR interferometry is discussed after the derivation of the probability density function of Hermitian product of two correlated Rice class SAR signals. A simple processing strategy is then provided for better phase unwrapping performance based on prominent points. The validaity of the proposed method is demonstrated by ENVISAT data. Our initial results show the advantage of such algorithm over conventional ones.
