Abrégé
The invention describes a method for detecting and resolving phase ambiguities in interferometric SAR data. The SAR data are available in the form of interferograms (IGP, IGH1, IGH2) which are generated from images that are captured and provided by a multi-static SAR system (1). The SAR system (1) comprises the following radars, which, in order to capture the images, fly in a formation along an azimuth direction (AR): a first and a second radar (10) with an antenna aperture of a first size; wherein the first and the second radar (10, 20) have a first baseline distance (BL1) transverse to an azimuth direction (AR) of the SAR system; at least one auxiliary radar (30; 30-1, 30-2), designed only for receiving, having an antenna with an antenna aperture of a second size, which is smaller than the antenna aperture of the first size, wherein the at least one auxiliary radar (30; 30-1, 30-2) flies in formation with the first and the second radar (10, 20) in such a manner that there is a second baseline distance (BL2) between the radars (10, 20, 30; 30-1, 30-2) which is smaller than the first baseline distance (BL1). In the method, a primary interferogram (IGP) is generated from the images of the first and second radar (10, 20), a first auxiliary interferogram (IGH1) is generated from the images of the pair of radars (10/30; 30-1/30-2) that have the second baseline distance (BL2), and a second auxiliary interferogram (IGH2) is generated that differs from the first interferogram (IGH1). A discrepancy mask is generated by a pixel-by-pixel comparison of the phases which are wrapped and scaled by the respective ambiguity level and which result from the primary interferogram (IGP) and the first and/or second auxiliary interferogram (IGH1, IGH2). Finally, the phase ambiguities are resolved in the primary interferogram (IGP) in the pixels that are marked as discrepant in the discrepancy mask.

The invention relates to a method for identifying an object (10), a transceiver station (30), identification means (12) and a system for identifying the object, which comprises a transceiver station (30) with a source (32) for generating a pulse train of pulses of electromagnetic radiation, and an identification means arranged on the object (10). The source (32) sends pulses from the pulse train in the direction of the object (10). A receive signal (52) is transmitted back from the identification means (12) to the transceiver station (30) in response to each transmit signal (50). Two polarisation states of the received signal (52) offset in time by the transit time of the received signal from the object to the transceiver station (30) are detected with two detectors (40) , and an actual identification pattern of the object is formed by aggregating the intensities of the polarisation states of several successive received signals (52). A time shift of the receive signals (52) relative to a trigger signal (42) synchronised with the pulse train of the source (32) is also detected.

A detector device for the remote analysis of materials, in particular hazardous materials, including at least one laser, which is designed to emit pulsed laser light onto a sample located at a detection distance, and a telescope, which is designed to collect and/or focus laser light scattered on the sample and to forward the scattered laser light into an optical spectrometer. The optical spectrometer is designed for a spectral analysis of the laser light scattered on the sample. The laser is followed by a first beam path with a first reference beam and an additional beam path with a second reference beam for the scattered laser light. A unit is provided for determining a time difference between pulses of the first reference beam and pulses of the second reference beam, wherein the detection distance can be determined from the time difference. The unit is designed to determine the detection distance in real-time.

In order to suppress aeroelastic instabilities on a transonically operating aircraft comprising a pair of wing halves at which a transonic flow forms spatially limited supersonic flow regions that each, in a main flow direction of the flow, end in a compression shock, a boundary layer of the flow is temporarily thickened-up in at least one supersonic flow region at at least one of the two wing halves, when approaching a flight envelope of the aircraft with increasing flight Mach number of the aircraft. The boundary layer of the flow is thickened-up to such an extent that the compression shock at the end of the respective supersonic flow region at the present flight Mach number of the aircraft induces a separation of the boundary layer of the flow from the wing half.
