The Object Detection Efficiency in Synthetic Aperture Radar Systems

The main purpose of this paper is to develop the method of characteristic functions for calculating the detection characteristics in the case of the object surrounded by rough surfaces. This method is to be implemented in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems using optimal resolution algorithms. By applying the specified technique, the expressions have been obtained for the false alarm and cor...

Synthetic aperture radar interferometry

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is a coherent active microwave imaging method. In remote sensing it is used for mapping the scattering properties of the Earth’s surface in the respective wavelength domain. Many physical and geometric parameters of the imaged scene contribute to the grey value of a SAR image pixel. Scene inversion suffers from this high ambiguity and requires SAR data taken at di...

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar

This paper provides a brief review of interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR), its history, the theory, and design / implementation / processing issues. Along-track, single-pass and repeat-pass cross-track interferometry are reviewed. Specific topics addressed include error sources and phase-unwrapping techniques. Several examples of InSAR applications are presented. Introduction For y...
