A wide-swath synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image is known to be achievable by merging multistatic aliased data that is collected with an appropriate along track displacement. However, in terms of both flexibility requirements like potentiality of both along track and cross track interferometry and design requirements like orbital safety etc., a cross track baseline is not only demanded but also unavoidable. In this work, two methods are proposed in order to merge SAR data to recover the Doppler spectrum unambiguously for the non zero cross track baseline case. The algorithms are compared and validated by simulating an azimuth invariant multistatic SAR satellite constellation. The results are promising in terms of dealing with long cross track baselines.

Distributed SAR systems provide imaging capabilities that cannot be achieved by traditional monolithic satellites, thanks to the multiple angles and times of observation. In this paper the opportunities offered by a swarm of small satellite nodes operating in S-Band are discussed. The nodes fly in a close formation and operate in MIMO mode. All the $N$ satellites transmit and receive the $N$ pulses at the same time, following a Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM) scheme. The work focuses in particular on the impact of the cross-track baselines on the resolution and on the quality of the signal reconstructed from the $N^{2}$ channels. A first iteration of a distributed target processor based on adaptive frequency and channel treatment is hence proposed with the aim of effectively accounting for the slope-induced spectral shifts.

This study focuses on the optimization of phased array antenna excitation coefficients for a spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system, comprising a joint mono static and bistatic configuration. An amplitude-only binary-coded Genetic algorithm (BGA) is proposed for the joint non-linear optimization problem to improve monostatic and bistatic SAR performance metrics. Based on the developed optimizer, significant performance improvement is achieved for both configurations.

This work presents a novel radar system for vehicle imaging. The proposed system is based on estimation of target parameters like range and velocity and generation of the final radar image. For this purpose, a multistatic Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) system is implemented. Both the simulation and on site measurements show that such a radar system has the potential to replace the current very expensive sensors.

A wide-swath synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image is known to be achievable by merging multistatic aliased data that is collected with an appropriate along-track displacement. However, in terms of both flexibility requirements like potentiality of both along-track and cross-track (XT) interferometry and design requirements like orbital safety, etc., a XT baseline is not only demanded but also unavoidable. In this work, a method is proposed in order to merge SAR data to recover the Doppler spectrum unambiguously for the nonzero XT baseline case. The algorithm is compared and validated by simulating an azimuth invariant multistatic SAR satellite constellation. The results are promising in terms of dealing with XT baselines.

This paper discusses the design details of a high resolution, low "Size, Weight, Power and Cost" (SWaP-C) radar altimeter (RA) system. Operating frequency of the radar is chosen within the Ka-band to achieve the desired size and weight requirements, that are highly demanded for the small satellite missions in a cost-efficient way. We propose a system design such that, an intended radar altimeter can be built by using the Commercial off the Shelf (COTS) components. The simulation results show that the proposed RA has high potentiality for realization.
