Abstract :
The authors present an SAR system capable of obtaining radar images from measurements carried out with antennas that describe a circular trajectory centred outside the target region. The analytical formulation of the processor is presented along with its ground range and azimuth resolutions. Some experimental results obtained in an anechoic chamber are also shown
