Abstract :
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems are designed to produce high quality imagery of a stationary target on the ground. These systems are not designed to handle moving targets and perform poorly in the areas of detecting and imaging moving targets. The paper presents advanced techniques developed to handle the detection and refocusing of moving targets for SAR systems.
