Abstract :
A monostatic holographic synthetic aperture radar (HSAR) image of a metalized 1/16 scale model of a military armored tank is presented along with a sequence of fixed-angle bistatic HSAR images of the same model. The monostatic image is equivalent to a focused inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) image. Only vv polarized results are shown
