N2 - When observing building scenarios, there exists the layover problem. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) tomography can use multiple two-dimensional (2D) SAR images acquired from different heights to inverse the range-azimuth-height 3D information of the targets. Ground-based arc-scanning synthetic aperture radar (GB-ArcSAR) can obtain a series of SAR images at different heights by performing azimuthal scanning on horizontal planes with different pitch angles, which makes it has tomography capabilities. However, the baseline of GB-ArcSAR is arc-shaped, which makes the existing tomographic imaging methods suitable for linear tomographic baselines cannot be directly applied to GB-ArcSAR. This paper proposes a tomographic imaging method of GB-ArcSAR with arc-shaped interferometric baseline. Through Taylor expansion of the distance between the target and the sampling position, a mapping relationship between the target pitch angle and interferometric phase was established. Based on the mapping relationship, the measurement matrix was constructed. Validation of the proposed method is achieved through simulations and measured data.
