Abstract :
The main results of SAR (synthetic aperture radar) processing are reviewed, and a method for imaging fixed and moving targets, called MTI (moving target indicator) SAR, at the same time is presented. The advantages and limitations of this method are explained. This is done in the framework of a side-looking airborne SAR, as opposed to spaceborne SAR.<>
