Synthetic Aperture Radar Processing

by Giorgio Franceschetti, Riccardo Lanari

Overview

Synthetic Aperture Radar Processing simply and methodically presents principles and techniques of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image generation by analyzing its system transfer function. The text considers the full array of operation modes from strip to scan, emphasizes processing techniques, enabling the design of operational SAR codes. A simple example then follows.
This book will be invaluable to all SAR scientists and engineers working in the field. It may be used as the basis for a course on SAR image generation or as a reference book on remote sensing. It contains a wide spectrum of information presented with clarity and rigor.

Editorial Reviews

A resource for scientists and engineers working in radar or remote sensing, and suitable for a one-semester course on synthetic aperture radar systems. Presents the processing algorithms that form the basis of such operations, and that are implemented in numerical codes that transform the apparent meaningless received raw data into meaningful two-dimensional and three-dimensional images of the exploited scene. Allows the emphasis of study to be any of the systems, their technological features, their practical uses, applications, or the fundamental principles of processing philosophy or of operational modes.
