Angle of incidence of target with respect to spacecraft

Dear @Vincent , thank you for the reply!

Probably I did not define correctly the incidence angle in my post, but for me the local incidence angle of the target on ground is defined as shown below:

Therefore, it seems like the elevation (defined as the angle between the tangent plane and the position of the spacecraft) is the complementary of the incidence angle, which should be exactly the red angle drawn in your diagram.
