    An On-Site InSAR Terrain Imaging Method with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

    by Hsu-Yueh Chuang, Jean-Fu Kiang

    An on-site InSAR imaging method carried out with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is proposed to monitor terrain changes with high spatial resolution, short revisit time, and high flexibility. To survey and explore a specific area of interest in real time, a combination of a least-square phase unwrapping technique and a mean filter for removing speckles is effective in reconstructing the terrain profile. The proposed method is validated by simulations on three scenarios scaled down from the high-resolution digital elevation models of the US geological survey (USGS) 3D elevation program (3DEP) datasets. The efficacy of the proposed method and the efficiency in CPU time are validated by comparing with several state-of-the-art techniques.

    High-Resolution L-Band TomoSAR Imaging on Forest Canopies with UAV Swarm to Detect Dielectric Constant Anomaly

    by Hsu-Yueh Chuang, Jean-Fu Kiang

    A rigorous TomoSAR imaging procedure is proposed to acquire high-resolution L-band images of a forest in a local area of interest. A focusing function is derived to relate the backscattered signals to the reflectivity function of the forest canopies without resorting to calibration. A forest voxel model is compiled to simulate different tree species, with the dielectric constant modeled with the Maxwell-Garnett mixing formula. Five different inverse methods are applied on two forest scenarios under three signal-to-noise ratios in the simulations to validate the efficacy of the proposed procedure. The dielectric-constant profile of trees can be used to monitor the moisture content of the forest. The use of a swarm of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is feasible to carry out TomoSAR imaging over a specific area to pinpoint potential spots of wildfire hazards.
