Abstract :
Efficient and accurate raw data simulation for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is an important step for the study and simulation of different SAR image formation algorithms. This paper presents SAR raw data simulation using the chirp scaling and omega-k algorithms in reverse. We demonstrate the results using these techniques as well as make a comparison between them
