Where α is a positive constant, when the phase ψ is large in scale, α can be slightly increased slightly, and vice versa, as shown in fig. 2, the specific value can be determined as the case may be,
it is not easy to directly solve the equation of the elliptic differential equation (7), so that
Figure GDA0003227839500000114
When solving, b is firstly taken as a constant, and an equation is solved
Figure GDA0003227839500000115
Obtaining phase phi, updating b by phi, resolving again, and iterating until a final result meeting conditions is obtained, wherein the condition numbers of a linear equation set of the sparse coefficient matrix are all larger, a Krysolv subspace algorithm is adopted for solving, and a Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient (PCG) method is used in the invention.
In addition, the use of L0The information such as specific experimental data related to the two-dimensional phase rapid unwrapping method of the norm cost function is as follows:
a machine used for experimental data processing is provided with a 2.7GHz logic 8-core CPU and a dual-channel 1600MHz8GB DDR3 memory, a 64-bit operating system is adopted, a multi-core parallel processing mode of a shared memory is used, and a linear equation is used for resolving a conjugate gradient algorithm adopting a semi-coarsening multi-grid precondition with good stability.
The experimental data comprises synthetic winding phase data and real InSAR interference phase data, the size of the synthetic data is 513 multiplied by 513 pixels, a vertical upper half-period sine strip is superposed in the center of a plane background, and then the continuous sine strip is subjected to phase winding processing and is changed into 7 sections after 6 times of truncation. The difficulty of the unwrapping processing of the data lies in that the discontinuous phase difference exceeds 3 periods, and the method for controlling the unwrapping result by depending on the differential relation between phase data has certain difficulty. And (3) taking alpha to be 0.003, carrying out unwrapping treatment on the whole without partitioning, after 8 times of iterative calculation, successfully recovering the continuity of the sine strip, and completely detecting the discontinuous boundary between the strip data and the background. The two-dimensional display of the raw composite data and the unwrapped result and its corresponding discontinuous boundary distribution data is shown in fig. 4, with the data unit being the phase period (2 pi).
The iterative calculation process is also a process of performing attraction and stretching from the winding phase to the unwinding result according to the constraint condition of a given equation, and the action strength is completely determined by the coefficient b. The values (a-e) of the coefficients b for the first 4 times and the last time and the corresponding changes (f-j) of the winding phase residuals δ ψ for each time are given in fig. 5.
It can be seen from the figure that the coefficient b has a larger absolute value at the winding phase residual and a smaller value at the discontinuous boundary position, and the position with the smaller absolute value has a larger value. The original phase information has stronger attraction in a region with larger value, the solution is attracted to the region close to the original phase information, successive approach is finally stabilized near a final unwrapping result, the residual quantity at the moment does not contain residual points any more, and the residual quantity is obtained by direct path integration.
The data is processed in a blocking mode, so that the processing difficulty can be reduced, the data convergence speed is increased, and problems can be caused by improper use. The synthetic winding phase data is divided into 2 × 2 and 3 × 3 data blocks, and the data blocks are combined after the data blocks are separated and wound. The resulting unwrapping results and the corresponding discontinuous boundary distribution are shown in fig. 6. It can be seen that both of these blocking schemes split the discontinuous boundary, the boundary line recovered after unwrapping is no longer complete, and a break occurs, such as the circled position in (b), but the unwrapping result (b) of 2 × 2 blocking can still recover the continuity of the sinusoidal band, which is also an acceptable unwrapping result. Using the processing result (c) of 3 × 3 blocks, the large discontinuous phase difference of the band in the middle block area cannot be recovered, so that the positive period misalignment of the band in the middle block area occurs, and this misalignment cannot be compensated during block splicing, so that the sinusoidal band is broken in the unwinding result, and finally the unwinding processing fails.
Therefore, when data blocking is performed, attention must be paid to the setting of the block size, and although the smaller the size, the faster the settlement becomes, it is necessary to avoid the above-described case where the discontinuous boundary truncation causes the local data cycle in the block to be shifted. The phase discontinuity in the wrapped phase is often due to signal noise or anomalies in the local features of the observed target, and the wide range of discontinuity boundaries is rare, so the problem is not very severe.
The real InSAR interference phase is adopted as experimental data, the data size is 1398 × 622 pixels, the data has a gentle change trend, noise interference at several positions is serious, and some positions are located at data boundary positions, the influence generated by the noise can be eliminated only by utilizing the constraint of data at one side, and the iteration in a larger area is time-consuming. The data is now partitioned on a 200 pixel and 100 pixel scale, i.e., using 7 x 3 and 14 x 6 schemes, respectively, and then separately partitioned for unwrapping. Due to the difference of the phase data quality in the block region, iterative computation is not needed in blocks without residual points, and the blocks with more residual points may need many iterations to complete unwrapping, so that the task allocation of parallel computation is suitable for adopting a dynamic allocation mode so as to more fully utilize resources.
After the unwrapping processing of all the block data is completed, the unwrapping results of the block data need to be spliced and synthesized into a complete processing result. Before data splicing, low-frequency information contained in the winding phase cannot be presented in the block region, and is ignored during the unwinding process, but represents a full-period phase shift between data blocks during the block splicing, and therefore compensation of the offset value is required. Due to the phase continuity characteristic of the unwrapping result, the phase difference value between the blocks is counted at the adjacent positions of the blocks, discontinuous boundary data mixed by accident are easily submerged by continuous phase data, and the phase deviation value between the blocks can be obtained through simple statistical analysis. Selecting one block as a reference block, sequentially calculating deviation values according to the adjacency relation, compensating according to the deviation values, and performing data splicing to obtain a complete phase unwrapping result. In fig. 7, there are shown the InSAR interferometric phase data (a), the data 14 × 6 block map (b), the block unwrapping result (c), the block offset value table (d), the splicing result (e) after offset compensation, and the discontinuous boundary distribution map (f) corresponding to the unwrapping result, and it can be seen that even if the inter-data is decomposed into data blocks of 100 pixels in size, the unwrapping result can still maintain good integrity.
In order to compare the method of the present invention with other unwrapping methods, Goldstein branch cutting method, Quality map Guided method based on variance (Quality Guided), Flynn minimum discontinuous method, SNAPHU method and PUMA method based on network flow and the unwrapping method proposed by the present invention are used to perform unwrapping processing on interferometric phase of InSAR using various methods, respectively. The quality of the unwrapping result and the unwrapping efficiency are respectively counted by using quantitative indexes, including the average value and the error statistics of the difference value between the unwrapped result and the original wrapped phase data, the length of the phase discontinuity boundary and the running time length, and the statistical results are listed in table 1.
It should be noted that the data type of the experimental processing is 8-bit floating point type data, and the effective number of the data is not more than 7 bits, so that when the related precision index reaches more than 10-6, no error can be considered. It can be seen from the table that the mean statistics of the rewinding phase difference values all reach more than 10 < -6 >, and the statistical value of the medium error index is more prominent in the Goldstein bisection method because the bisection method may cause the situation of islands or holes in the area with poor data quality. The statistic result of the discontinuous boundary length index is that the Flynn method is optimal, which is the most important principle of the unwrapping method, and secondly, the invention accords with L0The norm criterion method can obtain a smaller discontinuous boundary while considering data continuity, other methods such as a branch cut method and a quality guidance method are slightly poor, the worst method is SNAPHU, and noise in data causes a discontinuous boundary generated by phase deviation on corners. Finally, the branch and cut method is fastest, the quality guide method is next to the quality guide method, and the PUMA method is slowest, but the method provided by the invention has slightly different required running time under two blocking schemes. The smaller the data block size, the faster the processing speed, but to avoid destroying the integrity of discontinuous boundaries in the unwrapping result, the time consumption of the 14 × 6 blocking scheme is better than that of the SNAPHU method, which is equivalent to that of the Flynn method, even if the 7 × 3 blocking scheme is slightly shorter than that of the SNAPHU method, and the efficiency is better than that of the PUMA unwrapping method as a whole.
By integrating the statistical indexes in the table (fig. 8), it can be seen that the phase unwrapping method provided by the present invention can obtain a better unwrapping result and a smaller discontinuous boundary, and can achieve a higher processing efficiency by using a suitable blocking scheme and a parallel processing technique, and the advantage of both quality and efficiency is not possessed by the classical minimum norm method.
The invention has the beneficial effects that: the use L0Norm ofThe invention provides a two-dimensional phase rapid unwrapping method of a cost function, aims at the problem that the efficiency of processing a large data block by the conventional phase unwrapping method is low, analyzes the characteristics of the cost function by aiming at the conventional minimum norm unwrapping method, and provides a method which is in line with L0The two-dimensional phase unwrapping method of the norm cost function is combined with a data blocking scheme to solve the problem of full convergence of low-frequency errors in a linear differential equation so as to improve the efficiency of unwrapping processing, obtain a better unwrapping result and a smaller discontinuous boundary, adopt a proper blocking scheme and a parallel processing technology, and use L0The fast two-dimensional phase unwrapping method of the norm cost function can achieve high processing efficiency, the quality and the efficiency have the advantages that the classical minimum norm method does not have, and the method has good expansibility, and specific indexes refer to experimental statistical data.
