A method for measuring an interference baseline of a
satellite-borne double-antenna interference SAR (
Synthetic Aperture Radar)
system is suitable for a novel
satellite-borne double-antenna X-band interference SAR
satellite system and comprises the following steps: acquiring'high-resolution optical camera +
laser 'measurement data of the satellite-borne double-antenna interference SAR
system, satellite
body position, speed and attitude measurement data and earth positioning and orientation parameters; according to the
data acquisition frequency of the measurement data,
time synchronization is carried out by taking the measurement data of the high-resolution optical camera and the
laser as the standard; constructing a
transformation matrix according to the installation parameters of the SAR system
measurement device, the installation parameters of the SAR antenna, the measurement data after
time synchronization and the earth positioning and orientation parameters; calculating the
phase center position and speed of the main and auxiliary
radar antennas under the earth-centered earth-fixed coordinate system by using the constructed
transformation matrix; and resolving a spaceborne double-antenna interference SAR baseline according to the
phase center positions and speed information of the main and auxiliary
radar antennas. The method can meet the requirement of an interference baseline in the topographic surveying and mapping process of a novel satellite-borne double-antenna X-band interference SAR (
Synthetic Aperture Radar) system.
