Abstract

The complex coherence function describes information that is necessary to create maps from interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR). This coherence function is complicated by building layover. This paper presents a mathematical model for this complex coherence in the presence of building layover and shows how it can describe intriguing phenomena observed in real interferometric SAR data.
