Description
Summary:This dissertation assesses the influence of residual interferometric noise on SBAS InSAR, utilises redundancy numbers to design a SBAS network and analyses the noise in the SBAS-derived deformation time-series. The simulation results indicated that a contradictory trend may be derived if a network with fewer interferograms is applied to low-magnitude deformation and a network with redundancy number between ~0.8 and ~0.9 is “optimal”. A white plus flicker model best describes the noise model of deformation time-series.
