Abstract: Using GNSS data,the estimation model for GNSS multiscale strain field was established based on spherical wavelet. The key technologies for wavelet center location, wavelet scale choices and regularization parameter calculation were discussed in detail. For further testing the correctness of the model, the simulated data in locked fault areas was generated according to negative dislocation theory. With spherical wavelet model, the strain field in locked strike-slip fault areas was estimated,and the results agreed well with the characteristics of actual crustal deformation. Meanwhile, the experiments on crustal deformation anomaly detection with multiscale strain field were completed. The results showed that the small fault deformation of 50 km appeared obviously in the small scale(8th scale) stain field, but there wasn't signals in the large scale (4 to 7 scale). The large fault deformation of 150 km only showed a part of information in the small scale (8th scale) stain field, but showed more completely and clearly in the large scale(4 to 7 scale).So it's concluded that crustal deformation of different spatial coverage scope embody in the different scales strain field, and the small scale strain field have the ability to detect regional deformation anomaly.
