Abstract
In this work we analyze the properties of integration time and azimuth coverage of bistatic SAR configurations. The kinematics of antennas is modelled as a motion at a constant velocity along a linear path. Orbits can be at different heights above the ground and have crossing projections on a horizontal plane. Footprints on the reference ground plane move at different velocities. Performances of bistatic SAR configurations are compared to those of monostatic ones.
