Deceptive jamming against synthetic aperture radar (SAR) can create false targets or deceptive scenes in the image effectively. Based on the difference in interferometric phase between the target and deceptive jamming signals, a novel method for detecting deceptive jamming using cross-track interferometry is proposed, where the echoes with deceptive jamming are received by two SAR antennas simultaneously and the false targets are identified through SAR interferometry. Since the derived false phase is close to a constant in interferogram, it is extracted through phase filtering and frequency detection. Finally, the false targets in the SAR image are obtained according to the detected false part in the interferogram. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated by simulation results based on the TanDEM-X system.

Bistatic Noise SAR Experiment with a Non-Cooperative IlluminatorThe paper describes the results of a conception-stage experiment with a ground-based bistatic noise SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) demonstrator. Its aim was to research the ability of a simple Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) build system to provide a bistatic SAR image using non-cooperative illuminator. The noise signal used in the experiment is similar to a signal used in many transmission systems such as DVB-T that can be employed in passive bistatic radars. The paper presents the system setup, details of the measurement campaign, signal processing and the results of SAR imaging.

In this paper, a novel method is proposed by combining of radar clinometry and interferometry to improve the accuracy of digital elevation model (DEM) reconstruction. In synthetic aperture radar (SAR) signal processing, the interferometry method uses a couple of high-coherence SAR complex images and the clinometry method uses only one. On one hand, interferometry-derived DEM is much more accurate in regions of higher coherence than the clinometry one. However, in regions of lower coherence, some pronounced errors are produced with the interferometry method due to phase filtering and unwrapping problems. On the other hand, the clinometry method can produce a more robust DEM result by using the intensity of SAR image. Therefore the clinometry-and interferometry-derived DEM is fused by introducing a user-defined weighting factor, where in regions of higher coherence, the DEM results with the interferometry method are remained, and in regions of lower coherence, the interferometry-derived DEM is updated with the clinometry-derived one. Finally, the experimental results with Envisat data show the effectiveness of our approach.
