  • Abstract
    This paper presents an original approach to the bistatic SAR processing. Polarized electromagnetic field received is considered and used in a bistatic RDA processing. Then, some bistatic SAR image characteristics are presented. Latter, a model describing bistatic reflectivity of sea surface is introduced. This model is used in the bistatic SAR processing in order to introduce the speckle effect and to simulate targets on sea surface detection.
