Design Technology of Synthetic Aperture Radar

This book focuses on the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) system engineering technology and design, placing emphasis on the high-resolution imaging, moving target indication, and system engineering technology. This is presented through the author's research and practice experience gained over twenty years' working in the field. SAR system technology in acquisition and mapping has steadily grown and looks to continue the trend over the coming years. The work will enable those involved in SAR research areas, and related industries, to understand the fundamental knowledge and theories behind SAR systems, allowing them to conduct grounding system designs and analysis according to the guidelines provided in this book.
