3.2 Orbital Parameters and Atmospheric Effects 
The last parameter of the InSAR model is the 
interferometric constant Die that appears in the 
interferometric equation. This term usually represents the 
unwrapping integration constant, to be determined using 
at least one GCP. In our procedure, the parameterization 
of Die is of the form: 
D| C = d 0 + d 1 • col + d 2 • lin + d 3 • col • lin + d 4 • col 2 + d 5 • lin 2 (6) 
where the coefficients do, di, 62, d 3 , d 4 and ds have to be 
estimated in the adjustment. 
It includes the following components: 
- the phase unwrapping integration constant; 
- the effect of orbit errors on the interferometric distance; 
- the low frequency atmospheric effects on the 
interferometric phase. 
There is a single unwrapping constant for the entire scene 
only if one integration zone is created during the 
unwrapping. Otherwise, for each separate zone a different 
constant has to be estimated. 
In our calibration, the orbit errors are not explicitly 
modelled because the set of described parameters (Ro, 
AR, To, AT, fD and Die) is sufficient to compensate for the 
maximal errors we can expect in the orbits. The 
effectiveness of the compensation was tested by 
simulation assuming very conservative orbit biases. The 
orbital errors of the master satellite are compensated for 
by three parameters: the along-track component by To; 
the radial component by Ro; and the out-of-plane 
component, which affects both MP and the angle between 
the vectors Vm and MP, by Ro and fo. The radial and out- 
of-plane components of the slave orbital errors are 
compensated for by setting the coefficients of Die as 
parameters in the adjustment; the along-track component 
has no effect on the positioning. 
The interferometric constant Die can partially compensate 
for the low frequency atmospheric effects on the 
interferometric phase. Between the two image 
acquisitions, changes in the refractive index of 
atmosphere may occur. These changes are mainly due to 
tropospheric disturbances (Hanssen and Feijt, 1996), 
(Hanssen, 1998) and can result in very big phase shifts 
(shifts up to 3 cycles are reported). Their consequences in 
the generated DEMs can be very impressive: artefacts 
(e.g. depressions) interpreted as relief can appear. Their 
magnitude depends on the baseline length and can even 
reach 100+200 m. Expressing the interferometric constant 
as a second order polynomial and with an adequate 
distribution of GCPs, the atmospheric effects on the 
generated DEMs characterised by low spatial frequency 
can be compensated for. 
4. ESTIMATION OF THE InSAR PARAMETERS 
The calibration of the InSAR geometry requires the 
refinement of the model parameters through least squares 
adjustment using GCPs. The calibration improves the 
image to object geometric transformation of a specific 
interferometric pair and has to be carried out for every 
processed InSAR pair. 
The input data for the LS adjustment are the precise 
master and slave orbits and the GCPs, i.e. points whose 
position in the image space (col, lin, <Du) and in the object 
space (xp,y P ,zp) is known. For each GCP it is possible to 
write one range equation, one Doppler equation and one 
interferometric equation. These are the same equations 
(2), (3) and (4) used for the grid generation, but in this 
case the position of the pixel footprint P (xp,y P ,zp) is 
known and the model parameters (Ro, AR, To, AT, f D o, ídi, 
fü2, ÍD3, do, d-i, d2, d 3 , d 4 and ds) that have to be refined 
are the unknowns. 
Some model parameters are geometrically correlated. 
Setting them as free parameters causes an ill-conditioned 
normal matrix in the adjustment. In order to avoid a 
singular or ill-conditioned normal matrix, the parameters, 
which can not be determined with the given configuration, 
have to be excluded from the adjustment. An effective 
way to proceed in such a case is to add a so-called 
pseudo-observation to the observation equations (in this 
case the 3 equations written for each GCP) for each 
unknown parameter: 
Pk = Pk ! wk 
where: 
Pk is the K th unknown parameter (to be adjusted), 
p K is the approximate value of the K th parameter p K 
(treated as pseudo-observation), 
w K is the weight associated to the K^ pseudo 
observation. 
The weight associated to each pseudo-observation is 
employed to this purpose: those parameters whose 
values can not be determined in the adjustment receive a 
large weight in the relative pseudo-observation. 
The InSAR geometry calibration requires the estimate of 
not homogeneous (e.g. times, distances, frequencies) and 
highly correlated parameters. We face two opposite 
requirements: we need a stable estimate of the 
parameters (this implies to avoid building an ill- 
conditioned matrix and hence to reduce the number of 
adjusted parameters); but we aim at accurate calibration 
of the InSAR geometry, i.e. we have to compensate for all 
distortions (this demands to increase the number of 
parameters). 
We choose to exclude from the adjustment only the 
parameters that make very ill-conditioned the normal 
matrix N. The selection of the set of parameters is based 
on the following points: 
- analysis of the normal matrix eigenvalues and of the 
condition number; 
- check of the coefficient of total correlation of each 
parameter; 
- evaluation of the correlation coefficient between pairs of 
parameters. 
The complete description of the least squares adjustment 
adopted for the InSAR geometry calibration (e.g. 
linearization of the equations, construction of the 
stochastic model, solution estimation, etc.) is reported in 
appendix A. 
4.1 GCP Identification 
The GCPs are usually measured on the amplitude SAR 
images (see Figure 2). Depending on the land cover type 
and the topography, the measure can be also performed 
on coherence images (see Figure 3). 
It is quite difficult to establish a general rule for the 
number of GCPs required for the calibration. For areas up 
to 50 by 50 km (comparable with those we analysed), a 
set of 8+10 GCPs, evenly distributed in the whole scene, 
should assure a sufficient redundancy for the LS 
estimation.
