Abstract

In this paper, a novel CFAR algorithm for detecting layover and shadow areas in Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) images is proposed. Firstly, the probability density function (PDF) of the square root amplitude of InSAR image is estimated by the kernel density estimation. Then, a CFAR algorithm combining with the morphological method for detecting both layover and shadow is presented. Finally, the proposed algorithm is evaluated on a real InSAR image obtained by TerraSAR-X system. The experimental results have validated the effectiveness of the proposed method.
