Numerical calculations for a typical wave-front in remote sensing using the synthetic aperture radar interferometry, phase diagram in hyper-parameter space clarifies that the present method succeeds in phase unwrapping perfectly under the constraint of surface- consistency condition, if the interferograms are not corrupted by any noises. Also, we find that prior is useful for extending a phase in which phase unwrapping under the constraint of the surface-consistency condition. These results are quantitatively confirmed by the Monte Carlo simulation. }, journal = {International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering}, volume = {8}, number = {7}, year = {2014}, pages = {1135 - 1140}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/9998715}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/91}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 91, 2014}, }
