Azimuth Phase Coding by Up and Down Chirp Modulation for Range Ambiguity Suppression
High range ambiguity level will impair the spaceborne SAR image quality and hamper following SAR image applications. The range ambiguity suppression effect of the up and down chirp modulation on spaceborne SAR images is analyzed in this paper.

ABSTRACT Power lines in synthetic‐aperture radar (SAR) images are reflected as point signatures, which fluctuate annually in both the azimuth and range directions. A novel framework is proposed in this paper to evaluate the four‐dimensional dynamic status of power line sag using those point signatures in time‐series SAR images.

Signal properties of spaceborne squint-mode SAR [PDF]
This paper presents signal properties of spaceborne, strip-map SAR for very large squint angles. Doppler centroid, azimuth bandwidth, and exposure time are derived in terms of the platform attitude and elevation angle. This allows a description of the Doppler centroid variation with range and terrain height, and explains a possible range dependence of ...

A Concept for a High Performance Reflector-Based X-Band SAR [PDF]
The success of current spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is boosting the performance requirement of next generation systems. In order to cope with the evolution of SAR the design of the new systems will need to meet higher requirements for ...

Abstract Unsustainable rates of groundwater (GW) depletion make GW management a priority. Effective GW management is hindered by the uncertainty in the predictions of aquifer models, but the increase of geodetic surface deformation data can improve aquifer characterization.

Abstract The NASA/CNES Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) swath‐mapping radar altimetry satellite mission, launched in December 2022, provides repeat‐track coverage to about ±78.2° latitude every 21 days, sampling many of Antarctica's most dynamic ice shelves that play key roles in constraining mass loss from the grounded ice sheet ...

With the development and application of spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), higher resolution and a wider swath have become significant demands. However, as the resolution increases and the swath widens, the two-dimensional (2D) spatial variation ...

Flood Inundation Modeling Using the Surface Water Ocean Topography Mission
Abstract Flood risk mapping requires detailed river bathymetry, yet these data are unavailable for most rivers. We propose a new algorithm to estimate river bathymetry from multitemporal observations of water height by the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission.
