Abstract: It is proposed in connection with a method for the interferometric radar measurement in conjunction with a helicopter operating in accordance with the ROSAR principle (Heli-Radar) that two coherent receiving antennas with receiving channels are associated with a transmitter of the ROSAR-system mounted on the revolving rotary cross; and that the difference (?R) between the two distances (R+?R, R) from the measured impact point P are calculated, in the manner known per se, based on the wavelength ? of the emitted radar signal and the measured phase difference of the receiving echo of the two coherent receive channels.

Abstract: In conjunction with an arrangement for the interferometric radar measurement in connection with a radar system operating according to the ROSAR principle, comprising one coherent transmitting antenna and two coherent receiving antennas and their receiving channels, in connection with which the difference in the path between the two distances of the antennas and the measured points of impact is calculated by the wavelength &lgr; of the emitted radar signal and the measured phase difference of the receiving echo of the two coherent receiving channels, it is proposed that the interferometric ROSAR system is integrated in or on a rotating device and positioned in such a way that each relevant area of the field to be measured can be detected.
