In this paper we show that the technique for spotlight-mode SAR image formation generally
known as" backprojection" or" time-domain" is most easily derived and described in terms of …

In recent papers the authors discussed the advantages of forming spotlight-mode SAR
imagery from phase history data via a technique that is rooted in the principles of phased …

The convolution/back-projection (CBP) algorithm has recently once again been touted as
the" gold standard" for spotlight-mode SAR image formation, as it is proclaimed to achieve …

In this paper we describe an algorithm for fast spotlight-mode synthetic aperture radar (SAR)
image formation that employs backprojection as the core, but is implemented such that its …

This paper compares three algorithms for potential use in a real-time, on-board
implementation of spotlight-mode SAR image formation. These include: the polar formatting …

An adaptive image formation algorithm is proposed to exploit the aspect-angle dependence
of man-made scatterers in foliage penetrating (FOPEN) synthetic aperture radar (SAR). Man …

We investigate a recursive procedure for synthetic aperture imaging. We consider a concept
in which a SAR system persistently interrogates a scene, for example as it flies along or …

A method for digital image formation in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) systems is
presented. The proposed approach is based on the wavefront reconstruction theory for SAR …

Legacy synthetic aperture radar (SAR) exploitation algorithms were image-based
algorithms, designed to exploit complex and/or detected SAR imagery. In order to improve …

Spotlight-mode synthetic aperture radar (spotlight-mode SAR) synthesizes high-resolution
terrain maps using data gathered from multiple observation angles. This paper shows that …
