Abstract :
Simultaneously real-time monitoring for several distributed areas of interest is getting important in many applications. Such as security guarantee system during Olympic Games and brushfire monitoring for power grid. However, current remote sensing systems can hardly meet such steep demands. In this paper, we introduce a brand new system of Balloon SAR with Multi-spotlight illuminate mode. The new system is qualified with high resolution imaging ability for several flexible areas. Meanwhile, real time monitoring for long time duration is available here.
