Abstract :
In this letter, an analytical description of the 2-D and 3-D imaging of ground-based synthetic aperture radar data is given. The ability of the 3-D imaging to separate targets along the elevation direction will also be shown, thus allowing their complete localization in space. The validation of the proposed method is done by exploiting simulated data.
