Performance Analysis of a High Resolution Airborne FM-CW Synthetic Aperture Radar

conference paper
Compact FM-CW technology combined with high resolution SAR techniques should pave the way for a small and cost effective imaging radar. A research project has been inìtiated to investigate the feasibility of FM-CW SAR. Within the framework of the project an operational airborne FM-CW SAR demonstrator is being implemented. Furthermore, a detailed system model is being developed in order to analyze and estimate the performance of the demonstrator.
