Abstract :
Since the beginning of 1994 the Institut für Hochfrequenztechnik of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) has been operating an experimental airborne SAR E-SAR with a P-band radar front-end. The microstrip patch array antenna allows a signal bandwidth of slightly more than 10% of the 450 MHz carrier frequency. The radar is polarimetric on a pulse-to-pulse basis
