Reconfigurable Waveform Synthesis Techniques for Synthetic Aperture Radar

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is an active remote sensor. It utilises relative motion between an antenna and its target region, to synthesis a relatively long antenna, which can be further processed to achieve fine spatial. Pulsed Linear Frequency Modulation (LFM), or usually termed as chirp pulse,...
