Demonstration of SAR Interferometry under Crossing Orbits using TerraSAR-X and TanDEM-X [PDF]
This paper discusses cross-track SAR interferometry under crossing orbits. The underlaying theory is briefly outlined, showing that a crossing angle between the ground tracks needs to be compensated by applying different squint angles in order to ...

Coherent shift estimation for stacks of SAR images [PDF]
Speckle tracking is used with SAR images to estimate displacements, in ways that support or integrate interferometric measurements. This paper derives Fisher information expressions for the displacement estimation using coherent speckle tracking, for the
