RDAnet: A Deep Learning Based Approach for Synthetic Aperture Radar Image Formation [PDF]
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging systems operate by emitting radar signals from a moving object, such as a satellite, towards the target of interest. Reflected radar echoes are received and later used by image formation algorithms to form a SAR image.

Satellite Data in Agricultural and Environmental Economics: Theory and Practice
ABSTRACT Agricultural and environmental economists are in the fortunate position that a lot of what is happening on the ground is observable from space. Most agricultural production happens in the open and one can see from space when and where innovations are adopted, crop yields change, or forests are converted to pastures, to name just a few examples.

Four-dimensional SAR Imaging Algorithm Based on Iterative Reconstruction of Magnitude and Phase
Observation data obtained from the Four-Dimensional (4D) Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) system is sparse and non-uniform in the baseline-time plane. Hence, the imaging results acquired by traditional Fourier-based methods are limited by high side lobes ...

3D Near-Field Millimeter-Wave Synthetic Aperture Radar Imaging [PDF]
In this paper, we present 3D high resolution radar imaging process at millimeter-Wave (mmWave) frequencies by creating the effect of a large aperture synthetically. We use a low cost fully integrated Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar operating at $\rm 79\;GHz$ and then perform Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging in the near-filed zone.

Inferring Discharge From River Geometry on Titan
Abstract Titan's dense atmosphere, composed mainly of methane and nitrogen, maintains a methane cycle that shapes its surface. Like water on Earth, methane precipitation erodes Titan's surface, carving river networks at all latitudes, as revealed by the Cassini‐Huygens mission.

OFDM Synthetic Aperture Radar Imaging with Sufficient Cyclic Prefix [PDF]
The existing linear frequency modulated (LFM) (or step frequency) and random noise synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems may correspond to the frequency hopping (FH) and direct sequence (DS) spread spectrum systems in the past second and third generation wireless communications. Similar to the current and future wireless communications generations, in

In Situ Observations of the Thermal Strain Coefficient of Sea Ice
Abstract We conduct observations of sea ice thermal strain using a laser theodolite in situ (0.3–1 km distances) and InSAR remote sensing (1–22 km). We capture the thermal strain relationship of sea ice at geophysical scales never before measured.
