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

open access: yesEarth 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 ...

Development of the TanDEM-X Calibration Concept: Analysis of Systematic Errors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The TanDEM-X mission, result of the partnership between the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and Astrium GmbH, opens a new era in spaceborne radar remote sensing. The first bistatic satellite synthetic aperture radar mission is formed by flying the TanDEM-

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

open access: yesElectronics 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

open access: yesRemote 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

open access: yesElectronics 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.

General Processing Approach for Bistatic SAR Systems: Description and Performance Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
For its intrinsic properties, bistatic SAR processing cannot be approached in the same manner monostatic SAR process- ing is approached. In general, a bistatic SAR processor is more than a powerful focussing algorithm.

Ionospheric Faraday Rotation Angle Estimation for Bistatic Spaceborne SAR

open access: yesElectronics 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)

The Staggered SAR concept: Imaging a wide continuous swath with high resolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Staggered SAR is an innovative synthetic aperture radar (SAR) concept, based on the continuous variation of the pulse repetition interval (PRI). This concept allows high-resolution imaging of a wide continuous swath without the need for a long antenna ...
