Abstract
- This letter introduces the innovative multichannel sliding spotlight synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system for the acquisition of ultrahigh resolution radar images with wide swath coverage. The instructive system design guideline and the signal processing scheme for the proposed operational mode are exhibited. When deriving the azimuth reconstruction algorithm for the multichannel sliding spotlight mode, a novel squinted geometric model is employed, in which the variable antenna steering direction is taken into account. In addition, an in-depth quantitative analysis of system performance for the presented mode is carried on. Finally, a typical exemplary spaceborne SAR is designed based on the presented strategy, from which numerical simulation results are obtained to justify our derivations. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
