High‐Precision Airborne Circular SAR Imaging Method Based on Sub‐Aperture Autofocusing Combined With Terrain Undulation Error Compensation

open access: yesIET Radar, Sonar &Navigation, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
Airborne circular synthetic aperture radar (CSAR) has the ability of multiangle observation and high‐resolution imaging in remote sensing applications, but its imaging performance is often degraded by the platform motion error and terrain undulation error.

An Improved Imaging Algorithm for Multi-Receiver SAS System with Wide-Bandwidth Signal

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
When the multi-receiver synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) works with a wide-bandwidth signal, the performance of the range-Doppler (R-D) algorithm is seriously affected by two approximation errors, i.e., point target reference spectrum (PTRS) error and ...

Diversity in Stable GANs: A Systematic Review of Mode Collapse Mitigation Strategies

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2025.
We provide a methodical understanding of the mode collapse issue in GANs for image‐to‐image translation, covering its root causes, implications, effectiveness of existing mitigation strategies and evaluation metrics while identifying open challenges.

Design and implementation of sensor fusion for the towed synthetic aperture sonar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
For synthetic aperture imaging, position and orientation deviation is of great concern. Unknown motions of a Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS) can blur the reconstructed images and degrade image quality considerably.

Model selection techniques for seafloor scattering statistics in synthetic aperture sonar images of complex seafloors

open access: yesIET Radar, Sonar &Navigation, Volume 18, Issue 11, Page 2044-2056, November 2024.
High resolution sonar imagery are analysed using a mixture model consisting of K distributions. The number of K distributions is chosen using several model selection techniques and compared with the authors own interpretation of the data. Abstract In quantitative analysis of seafloor scattering measurements, it is common to model the single‐point ...

Seafloor imagery with an advanced imaging sonar system

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
The mapping swath and along-track resolution can be simultaneously enhanced by using multireceiver synthetic aperture sonar (SAS). Unfortunately, the SAS parameters, including the pulse repetition frequency, SAS moving velocity, and the along-track ...

A CTFM synthetic aperture sonar

open access: yes, 1989
This thesis describes the theory and operation of a seafloor imaging Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS), based on broadband Continuous Tone Frequency Modulation (CTFM). Narrowband synthetic aperture techniques are reviewed, and some of the limitations of
