MirrorSAR

A fractionated space radar for bistatic, multistatic and high-resolution wide-swath SAR imaging

This paper introduces the concept of a fractionated MirrorSAR which is based on a set of mutually separated transmitter and receiver satellites. As opposed to previously published bi- and multistatic SAR systems, the receiver satellites are considerably simplified, as their ma ...

Tandem-L

Main results of the phase a feasibility study

Tandem-L is a highly innovative SAR satellite mission for the global observation of dynamic processes on the Earth's surface with hitherto unknown quality and resolution. Thanks to its novel imaging techniques and its unprecedented acquisition capacity, Tandem-L will deliver u ...

Ambiguities are one of the limiting factors of SAR product quality and are thus important subject to every mission performance analysis. Since target NRCS is highly heterogeneous, the resulting ambiguities affect different areas at very different levels. Therefore using global ...

This paper reviews advanced SAR system architectures and modes for high-resolution ultra-wide-swath SAR imaging. The comparison includes both direct radiating array antennas and reflector-based system configurations operating in either a single-Transmit multiple-receive (SIMO) ...

Several countries in Europe and elsewhere have a national freight transport model. This paper discusses some old and new issues for these models, based on experiences in at least seven European countries. These issues have to do with the institutional organisation of the work on ...

ALOS-Next/TanDEM-L

A highly innovative SAR mission for global observation of dynamic processes on the earth's surface

ALOS-Next/Tandem-L is a proposal for a highly innovative L-band SAR satellite mission for the global observation of dynamic processes on the Earth's surface with hitherto unparalleled quality and resolution. It is based on a collaboration between DLR and JAXA which started wit ...

This paper reviews radar architectures that employ multiple transmit and multiple receive channels to improve the performance of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems. These advanced architectures have been dubbed multiple-input multiple-output SAR (MIMO-SAR) in analogy to MI ...

Tandem-L

An innovative interferometric and polarimetric SAR mission to monitor Earth system dynamics with high resolution

Tandem-L is a proposal for an innovative interferometric and polarimetric radar mission that enables the systematic monitoring of dynamic processes on the Earth surface. Important mission objectives are global forest height and bio-mass inventories, large scale measurements of mi ...
