  • Abstract
    A new version of chirp scaling (CS), the so-called ultrawideband (UWB) CS (UCS), is proposed in this letter. UCS aims at UWB synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems utilizing large fractional bandwidth and wide antenna beamwidth associated with a wide integration angle. Furthermore, it is also valid for SAR systems with special characteristics such as ground-moving-target-indication SAR systems with a very high pulse repetition frequency.
