Reliable phase unwrapping algorithm based on rotational and direct compensators.
TLDR
A new phase unwrapping approach for noisy wrapped phase maps of continuous objects to improve the accuracy and computational time requirements of phase unwrap using a rotational compensator (RC) method based on compensating the singularity of discontinuity sources.Abstract:
Phase unwrapping still plays an important role in many data-processing chains based on phase information. Here, we introduce a new phase unwrapping approach for noisy wrapped phase maps of continuous objects to improve the accuracy and computational time requirements of phase unwrapping using a rotational compensator (RC) method. The proposed algorithm is based on compensating the singularity of discontinuity sources. It uses direct compensation for adjoining singular point (SP) pairs and uses RC for other SP pairs. The performance of the proposed method is tested through both simulated and real wrapped phase data. The proposed algorithm is faster than the original algorithm with the RC and has proved efficiency compared to other phase unwrapping methods.read more

Satellite radar interferometry: Two-dimensional phase unwrapping
TL;DR: In this paper, an approach to 'unwrapping' the 2 pi ambiguities in the two-dimensional data set is presented, where it is found that noise and geometrical radar layover corrupt measurements locally, and these local errors can propagate to form global phase errors that affect the entire image.
