Abstract :
In the recent years synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technique and its application is much emphasized in the field of remote sensing. SAR sensor is being developed as a key geometric data source. This paper presents the main R and D activities of synthetic aperture radar systems in Institute of Electronics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (TECAS). It includes 5 parts of work on airborne SAR, spaceborne SAR, ground SAR processer, basic scientific and technical research and new generation´s SAR technologies. These activities are explained and representative examples are described
