Abstract :
In this paper, an improved joint subspace projection method for synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR) interferogram filtering is proposed. Benefiting from the new formulation of joint data vector, the method does not need to calculate the noise subspace dimension before estimating the InSAR interferometric phase, thus avoiding the effect on the estimation of the InSAR interferometric phase due to the inaccuracy of the noise subspace dimension. The method can auto-coregister the SAR images and reduce the interferometric phase noise simultaneously.
