Abstract
A computer simulation of SAR data is discussed. A method is outlined for simulating a distributed scene which is capable of modeling SAR data, under moderate motion of the radar platform, and a wide range of incidence angles. Arbitrary terrain profiles and reflectivities can be modeled. Interferometric pairs of data can be generated. Inputs and outputs to the simulator and the steps required in the simulation algorithm are outlined
