Sentinel-1A Product Geolocation Accuracy: Commissioning Phase Results [PDF]
Sentinel-1A (S1A) is an Earth observation satellite carrying a state-of-the-art Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging instrument. It was launched by the European Space Agency (ESA) on 3 April 2014. With the end of the in-orbit commissioning phase having been completed at the end of September 2014, S1A data products are already consistently providing ...

Quantitative estimation of sentinel-1A interferometric decorrelation using vegetation index
Sentinel-1A data are widely used in interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) studies due to the free and open access policy. However, the short wavelength (C-band) of Sentinal-1A data leads to decorrelation in numerous applications, especially in

Sentinel-1A/B SAR calibration and performance status
Sentinel-1 (S-1) is the European flagship SAR mission initiated by European Space Agency and the European Commission. It is a constellation of two C-band twins satellite providing backscatter globally. The calibration and overall SAR performance of the mission is continuously assessed by the S-1 Mission Performance Center being a joint venture of ...

Radiometric Comparison within the Sentinel-1 SAR Constellation over a Wide Backscatter Range
Radiometric calibration adjusts the measured pixel intensity to a physical property, the radar cross section (RCS). After calibration, this relationship is defined over the entire backscatter range: from low image power (near noise) up to high ...
