Abstract:
This paper reviews advanced SAR system architectures and modes for high-resolution ultra-wide-swath SAR imaging. The comparison includes both direct radiating array antennas and reflector-based system configurations operating in either a single-transmit multiple-receive (SIMO) or a multiple-transmit multiple-receive (MIMO) mode.
