Abstract :
Summary form only given, as follows. A review is given on the recent development in the Ukraine of cost-effective SAR systems for small aircraft. The costs have been substantially reduced due to the introduction of original software solutions. These solutions have enabled us to simplify radically the navigation system and to produce geometrically correct SAR images. A technique for 3D imaging with a single-antenna, squint-mode SAR has also been proposed. The efficiency of the solutions has been confirmed with Ku- and X-band SAR systems.
