Principles of Synthetic Aperture Radar Imaging - A System Simulation Approach

This book offers in-depth and sufficient, broad, step-by-step understanding of the influence of system parameters on image quality. Platforms including spacecraft, aircraft, and ground-based (e.g. rail) are covered to take into account the influence of platform motion that is profoundly important for high image quality formation. The book also c
