SUB-APERTURE FOCUSING ALGORITHM OF GEOSYNCHRONOUS SAR

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) on the geosynchronous orbit has the advantage in remote sensing, with high resolution to provide a large coverage in a short visit time. the space-variant coverage and range-azimuth couple of GEO SAR are required to compensate, using the electrical beam steering, the i...
