Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Recently, SAR tomography (TomoSAR) which combines multiple SAR datasets to reconstruct in theelevation (height) direction has been attracting attention in microwave remote sensing. The TomoSAR can re-construct without occurring the geometric distortion such as foreshortening or layover which are a problem of thelinear SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar), because it reconstructs the three-dimensional space to three-dimensionally. However, it is generally difficult to ensure sufficient performance in elevation direction reconstruction by TomoSAR, especially low resolution has been a big problem because targets of the remote sensing are distributed near the ground surface. In order to solve this problem, we propose to employ polarimetric analysis to the TomoSAR. In this report, we make a three-dimensional scattering matrix including the height direction by the TomoSAR analysis and show results of applying the scattering power decomposition.
