Abstract :
This paper studies two Range-Doppler (RD) algorithms for azimuth correlation of squint mode airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). The modeling of squint mode airborne SAR spatial geometry and echo response is given. The procedure for processing squint mode airborne SAR using two RD algorithms is outlined. The simulation demonstrates that these two RD algorithms are suitable for squint mode airborne SAR when the squint angle is not large 20
