Abstract :
The paper first explains the common properties of ScanSAR and SpotSAR raw data. Then, a generalized extended chirp scaling (ECS) processing approach is proposed for both, ScanSAR and SpotSAR phase preserving data processing. The performance of the proposed approach is demonstrated by interferometric ScanSAR and SpotSAR processing examples
