Abstract

This work is focused on the detection of single and multiple scatterers in multiview/multitemporal SAR data in order to locate and monitor a high number of ground structures with low signal misinterpretation. This issue is addressed here by combining amplitude and phase data, differently from common techniques for the detection of single scatterers which rely on phase coherence measures. Experiments with real satellite C-band data are presented with both full resolution and multilook processing.
