SAR++: A Multi-Channel Scalable and Reconfigurable SAR System
نویسندگان
چکیده
SAR++ is a technology program aiming at developing know-how and technology needed to design the next generation civilian SAR systems. Technology has reached a state, which allows major parts of the digital subsystem to be built using custom-off-the-shelf (COTS) components. A design goal is to design a modular, scalable and reconfigurable SAR system using such components, in order to ensure maximum flexibility for the users of the actual system and for future system updates. Having these aspects in mind the SAR++ system is presented with focus on the digital subsystem architecture and the analog to digital interface.

System Error Analysis and Calibration Methods for Multi-channel Sar
For multi-channel SAR system, since the minimum antenna area constraint is eliminated, wide swath and high resolution SAR image can be achieved. However, compared to mono-channel SAR system, there exist many deleterious factors in multi-channel SAR system which significantly degrade the quality of SAR image. In this paper, all the deleterious factors in the system are analyzed and classified ac...
متن کاملComplete Complementary Sequence Coding Waveform Based Azimuth Multi-channel Space-borne Sar with Ultra-low Range Sidelobe Ratio Performance
Sidelobes of strong targets substantially impact image quality of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) using linear frequency modulation (LFM) waveform, especially in urban areas. A novel space-borne azimuth multi-channel SAR scheme with ultra-low range sidelobe-ratio (RSLR) performance was proposed, employing complete complementary sequence (CC-S) coding waveform. The CC-S waveform was utilized to a...
متن کاملNovel Data Acquisition Method for Interference Suppression in Dual-Channel SAR
Various interference sources either intentional or unintentional can mask the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) signals and cause image degradation. With a novel data acquisition mode, a new method based on dual-channel SAR is applied to suppress the interference. Using the received dual-channel data, the two-dimensional location of the interference source can be estimated and then the interferenc...

SAR imaging systems are as a complement to passive remote sensing but the process of image formation in this systems is so complex So that the final image in the system is formed after the three basic steps: raw data acquisition, forming the signal space and image space. In addition, various factors within the system and outside the system are involved in the information that recorded by SAR, s...
متن کاملMulti-Channel ScanSAR for High-Resolution Ultra-Wide-Swath Imaging
Multi-channel radar systems allow for overcoming the inherent limitation of conventional synthetic aperture radar (SAR). An example is the combination of digital beamforming on receive in elevation with multi-aperture SAR signal reconstruction in azimuth which enables high-resolution wide-swath imaging [1]. As a next step, focus is turned to advanced concepts for the imaging of even wider swath...
