Abstract:
An arrangement for interferometric radar measurement having a plurality of ROSAR systems linked together, each ROSAR system comprising:at least one coherent transmitting antenna for emitting a radar signal; at least two coherent receiving antennas that receive a radar signal; at least two receiving channels, one disposed on each receiving antenna; and a rotating device having a rotating arm upon which said at least one coherent transmitting antenna and said at least two coherent receiving antennas are integrated; wherein a difference in radar signal path distance between said at least two coherent receiving antennas and measured points of impact is calculated using a wavelength &lgr; of said emitted radar signal and a measured phase of a receiving echo of said two coherent receiving channels; and wherein the arrangement is embodied as an interferometric ROSAR system, and positioned in such a way that each relevant area of the field to be measured can be detected, wherein for obtaining an image of the overall situation, ROSAR systems form a data network when linked together.
