  2. Imaging radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imaging_radar

    Synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) is a form of radar which moves a real aperture or antenna through a series of positions along the objects to provide distinctive long-term coherent-signal variations. This can be used to obtain higher resolution.

  3. Synthetic-aperture radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic-aperture_radar

    Synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) is a form of radar that is used to create two-dimensional images or three-dimensional reconstructions of objects, such as landscapes. [1] SAR uses the motion of the radar antenna over a target region to provide finer spatial resolution than conventional stationary beam-scanning radars.

  4. Side looking airborne radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Side_looking_airborne_radar

    Side-looking airborne radar (SLAR) is an aircraft, [1] or satellite-mounted imaging radar pointing perpendicular to the direction of flight (hence side-looking). [2] A squinted (nonperpendicular) mode is also possible. SLAR can be fitted with a standard antenna (real aperture radar) or an antenna using synthetic aperture.

  5. Radar engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_engineering

    Real-beam radar sensors allow for real-time target sensing. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) allow for an angular resolution beyond real beamwidth by moving the aperture over the target, and adding the echoes coherently. Architecture: The field of view is scanned with a highly directive frequency-orthogonal (slotted waveguide), spatially ...

  6. NISAR (satellite) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NISAR_(satellite)

    The NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission is a joint project between NASA and ISRO to co-develop and launch a dual-frequency synthetic aperture radar on an Earth observation satellite in 2025. The satellite will be the first radar imaging satellite to use dual frequencies.

  7. High Resolution Wide Swath SAR imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Resolution_Wide_Swath...

    The associated resolution loss from sharing the synthetic aperture among different swaths is compensated by collecting radar echoes with multiple displaced azimuth apertures. A possible drawback of multichannel ScanSAR or TOPS approaches is the rather high Doppler centroid, [ 9 ] which is one of the most important parameters need to be ...

  8. Satellite geodesy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_geodesy

    Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) is a radar technique used in geodesy and remote sensing. This geodetic method uses two or more synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images to generate maps of surface deformation or digital elevation , using differences in the phase of the waves returning to the satellite.

  9. Capella Space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capella_Space

    Capella Space is an American space company with satellite and unclassified SAR data solutions for government and commercial use. It offers space-based radar Earth observation satellites equipped with synthetic-aperture radar that can collect imagery through clouds and at night. [1]
