Abstract
In this paper, the first detection result of coherent scatterers (CSs) in forest environment is addressed. As a scatterer associated with CS, the dihedral structure consists of the tree-trunk like a vertical cylinder and the ground surface is assumed. The potential of CSs as being the phase stable scatterers as permanent scatterers will be also demonstrated with P-&L-band Pol-InSAR datasets acquired in repeat-pass InSAR mode over boreal forest test site by German Aerospace Center´s E-SAR airborne system.
