A New Age of SAR: How Can Commercial Smallsat Constellations Contribute to NASA's Surface Deformation and Change Mission?

Earth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract In response to the 2017 Decadal Survey, NASA conducted a five‐year study on the Surface Deformation and Change (SDC) designated observable to study potential mission concepts. As part of the SDC mission study, the Commercial Synthetic Aperture Radar (ComSAR) subgroup was tasked with evaluating the current landscape of the SAR and ...

An ISAR target motion estimation algorithm based on a differential semblance criterion

Electronics Letters, Volume 61, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
This study presents a novel approach for improving rotational motion estimation in multistatic Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) imaging through a Differential Semblance Optimization (DSO) criterion. By reducing discrepancies across images from multiple transmitter–receiver pairs, our method enables precise yaw rotation estimation and produces ...

Near-Space Microwave Radar Remote Sensing: Potentials and Challenge Analysis

Remote Sensing, 2010
Near-space, defined as the region between 20 km and 100 km, offers many new capabilities that are not accessible to low earth orbit (LEO) satellites and airplanes, because it is above storm and not constrained by either the orbital mechanics of ...

Multistatic Synthetic Aperture Radar Autofocus for Back Projection Imaging of a Moving Target

Electronics Letters, Volume 61, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
This paper presents a new metric‐based autofocus approach, called Localised Threshold Sharpness (LTS), which employs Multistatic SAR data to localise and focus a target moving with up to six degrees of freedom motion on a real‐time, pulse‐by‐pulse basis.

Ionospheric Faraday Rotation Angle Estimation for Bistatic Spaceborne SAR

Electronics Letters, Volume 61, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
This paper proposes a Faraday rotation angle estimation method for bistatic spaceborne SAR. The effectiveness of the method is verified through simulation experiments and the performance of the method is analysed. Under different SNR and filtering window sizes, the estimation error range is 0.02°–0.26°. ABSTRACT Bistatic synthetic aperture radar (SAR)
