Abstract
TerraSAR-X (TSX) is a high resolution right looking radar satellite, launched on June 15, 2007. TSX carries a high frequency X-band SAR sensor that can be operated in different modes (coverage and resolution) and has quad polarization and dual receive antenna mode used for along track interferometry (ATI) experimental acquisitions.
