TOMOGRAPHIC SAR INVERSION FROM MIXED REPEAT- AND SINGLE-PASS DATA STACKS – THE TERRASAR-X/TANDEM-X CASE [PDF]
This paper presents the first demonstration of high precision very high resolution tomographic SAR inversion with the assistance of TanDEM-X data. The data quality of TerraSAR-X and TanDEM-X is investigated.

Scanning Inside Volcanoes with Synthetic Aperture Radar Echography Tomographic Doppler Imaging
A problem with synthetic aperture radars (SARs) is that due to the poor penetrating action of electromagnetic waves within solid bodies, the ability to see through distributed targets is precluded.

A Deep-Learning Approach for SAR Tomographic Imaging of Forested Areas
Synthetic aperture radar tomographic imaging reconstructs the three-dimensional reflectivity of a scene from a set of coherent acquisitions performed in an interferometric configuration. In forest areas, a large number of elements backscatter the radar signal within each resolution cell.

Realistic Lower Bound on Elevation Estimation for Tomographic SAR [PDF]
The noise in a tomographic synthetic aperture radar (Tomo-SAR) model is normally assumed to be independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) Gaussian. In this paper, the correlated Tomo-SAR model is introduced by studying the effect of random residual phase and correlated additive Gaussian noise, and a realistic and general hybrid Cramér-Rao bound ...

γ-Net: Superresolving SAR Tomographic Inversion via Deep Learning [PDF]
Synthetic aperture radar tomography (TomoSAR) has been extensively employed in 3-D reconstruction in dense urban areas using high-resolution SAR acquisitions. Compressive sensing (CS)-based algorithms are generally considered as the state-of-the art in super-resolving TomoSAR, in particular in the single look case.
