The airborne SAR-system: RAMSES NG airborne microwave remote sensing imaging system

RAMSES NG, the new airborne SAR system developed by ONERA, integrates new generation of radar and optronics payloads. RAMSES NG can operate over a wide range of frequency bands from UHF-VHF, to X including L-Band with long range, polarimetric and interferometric capabilities. We describe in this paper the pod-based SAR-system RAMSES NG and its associated digital remote control.
