Title
A Robust Stereo Positioning Solution for Multiview Spaceborne SAR Images Based on the Range-Doppler Model
Abstract
In recent years, the stereo positioning technology based on multiview spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images has been widely applied in digital surface model extraction. In this letter, problems of the existing methods based on the range-Doppler (RD) model in a multiview stereo solution are pointed out. A robust stereo positioning solution for multiview spaceborne SAR images based on the RD model is proposed. In the proposed method, the traditional RD model is normalized to reduce the model errors caused by the different scales of the range equation and Doppler equation. A weighting strategy is also proposed to improve the positioning accuracy. This strategy is useful for multiview stereo positioning when using images of different satellites with orbital data of different accuracies. The experiments based on GaoFen-3 and TerraSAR-X satellite data sets validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
