Bistatic Pol-InSAR Scenario and Evaluation by Forest Scattering Simulations

This paper comes within the context of exploring the potential of bistatic Pol-InSAR. Numerical simulations are carried out by means of MIPERS, multistatic interferometric polarimetric electromagnetic model for remote sensing which has already proved many abilities. The latter involves a electro-magnetic coherent approach of a discrete natural media description and enables us to model Pol-InSAR observables over forests in the bistatic configuration. Taking into account bistatic SAR constrains in terms of resolution, critical base-line, SNR, range and height ambiguities, new configurations for Pol-InSAR applications are envisioned.
