Generation of SAR stereo image pair

Intuitionistic stereo percipience can be got with stereo viewing of stereo image pair, and also three dimension information can be got by using stereo mapping tools. In china, the technique of generation of optical stereo image pair is mature, but the problem of SAR stereo image pair has not been solved, researching the technique of generation of stereo image pair is significative for topographic mapping using SAR image. This paper describes the principle and method of simulation of stereo image pair based on single SAR image. Geo-location model of SAR image is introduce in this paper, so are direct geo-location and indirect geo-location. The simulation of SAR stereo image pair is introduced detailedly. Simulation experiment is done with a TerraSAR image in China. The stereo percipience is well when stereo viewing, and the image pair can be used in stereo measuring.
