Bi- and Multistatic SAR: Potentials and Challenges
نویسندگان
چکیده
Biand multistatic synthetic aperture radar (SAR) operates with distinct transmit and receive antennas which are mounted on separate platforms. Such a spatial separation has several operational advantages which will increase the capability, reliability and flexibility of future SAR missions. We will introduce various spaceborne biand multistatic SAR configurations and compare their potentials for different applications like frequent monitoring, wide swath imaging, scene classification, single-pass cross-track interferometry or resolution enhancement.

متن کاملSynchronisation and relative position of airborne bistatic radar
The interest in biand multistatic radar has been growing over the last years as they offer various advantages. For instance the transmitter and receiver can be easily be separated and therefore the survivability can be enhanced by deploying the transmitter further away from the scene. Even the possibility of a forward looking synthetic aperture radar can be realised. Bistatic radar can provide ...
متن کاملHigh Resolution Synthetic Aperture Radar
This manuscript first introduces the fundamentals of Synthetic Aperture radar (SAR), there including the principle of the high resolution imaging capability, the processing required to focus the images, with its constraints and the different acquisition modes. Thereafter, it shows the potential ways to increase the imaging capabilities based on the concept of distributed SAR. Specifically both ...
