Relativistic Effects in Bistatic SAR Processing and System Synchronization

open access: yes, 2012
This paper addresses relativistic effects in bistatic and multistatic SAR systems and missions. It is shown that the use of different reference frames for bistatic SAR processing and bistatic radar synchronization is prone to nota-ble phase and time ...

Detecting changes between a DSM and a high resolution SAR image with the support of simulation based separation of urban scenes

open access: yes, 2012
As a SAR image is often the only available data in crisis situations, e.g. after an earthquake, a change analysis of the SAR image with previously acquired data may enable a fast analysis of the damage caused by the disas-ter.

Strategies for the automatic mapping of flooded areas and other water bodies from high resolution TerraSAR-X data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Medium resolution SAR satellite data have been widely used for water and flood mapping in recent years. Since the beginning of 2008 high resolution radar data with up to one meter pixel spacing of the TerraSAR-X satellite are operationally available. The

The Radiometric Measurement Quantity for SAR Images

open access: yes, 2013
A Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) system measures among other quantities the terrain radar reflectivity. After image calibration, the pixel intensities are commonly expressed in terms of radar cross sections (for point targets) or as backscatter ...
