Abstract

The paper is devoted to design and testing of a reconfigurable Ka-band GB NW-SAR. Its design is based upon new synthetic aperture antennas and noise radar technology. Results of outdoor trials are presented for both SAR imaging and differential interfrometry measurements. Synthetic aperture antenna suggested and designed transmit/receive units are briefly described. Algorithm for bistatic SAR image generation and implementing of differential interferometry technique are also presented. Designed and tested Ka-band GB NW-SAR is applicable for precise remote monitoring of various manmade or natural objects, such as ceilings and roofs of big halls and hangars, dams, bridges, Mowers, etc.
