Abstract  Roll angle is an important parameter for three-dimensional imaging altimeter to measure Sea Surface Height.The height error due to the roll angle error grows linearly across the swath and a slight error of roll angle will results in a large height error within observation range.So a very accurate knowledge of the roll angle error is required.Nadir interferometric phase has a strong correlation with the roll angle,so using the nadir interferometric phase from the interference image can get roll angle more accurately than instrument measurements.It’s possible to meet the centimeter-level accuracy after correcting the roll angle error.Simulation measurement and elevation reconstruction based on the geometric relationship were performed,and the research of correction the roll angle error by nadir interferometric phase was carried out.Both theoretical calculation and numerical simulation show that the measurement accuracy of roll angle can be as high as 0.03 arcsecond when the accuracy of nadir interferometric phase is 10-3rad.In this case,the height measurement accuracy have been averaged across a swath between 10 and 60 km of nadir will decrease to 0.48 cm which is 6.02 cm when the roll accuracy is 0.36 arcsecond.It means that the nadir interferometric phase method can effectively correct the roll error of three-dimensional imaging altimeter.
