Abstract

Differential Interferometry Synthetic Aperture Radar (D-InSAR) technology is an important means of mining subsidence monitoring, but due to the influence of environment and ground objects, the phase unwrapping of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data exceeds the set threshold value, resulting in the “void field” phenomenon in the output differential interferogram, so the Line of Sight (LOS) deformation value of the complete observation period cannot be extracted. In response to this problem, Reverse Geocoding Nonlinear Autoregression Neural Network (RGC-NARNN) and Reverse Geocoding Long Short Term Memory (RGC-LSTM) models were constructed to repair the void field, and were compared. The subsidence surface is simulated by self-affine fractal and dynamic Knothe function. Through the simulation experiment, the RGC-NARNN model predicts the root mean square error of the two kinds of subsidence surface are 1.07 mm and 2.20 mm, respectively. RGC-LSTM model predicts the root mean square error of the two kinds of subsidence surface are 4.21 mm and 241.78 mm, respectively. The preliminary judgment may be that the small amount of data causes the poor prediction results of the RGC-LSTM model, so RGC-NARNN was selected for subsequent experiments. The RGC-NARNN model was used to repair the actual “void field” of the two differential interferograph from June 25, 2017 to July 19, 2017 and from November 16, 2017 to November 28, 2017 in a coal mining panel in Huainan, China. Compared with the actual value, the root mean square error is 1.87 mm and 1.10 mm, respectively. The repair effect meets the requirements of accuracy.
