Icompute height ambiguity for flat terrain

Overview

heightamb v1.1, BK software, Bert Kampes, (c)1999-2000

Computes indicative height ambiguity for flat terrain as function of perpendicular baseline. A larger Bperp yields more sensitivity to height, i.e., a decreasing height ambiguity (the height difference corresponding to a 2pi phase difference (a fringe)).

Program parameters (ERS):

lambda:

0.0565646 [m]

R1:

850000.0 [m]

theta:

23.0 [deg]

theta:

[rad]

terrain slope:

0.0 [rad]

Examples:

heightamb heightamb 100 heightamb 25 50 100 200 400 800

Input perp. Baseline [m]:

Bperp = [m] ---> Height ambiguity = [m/2pi]
