Abstract :
Processing bistatic SAR image all through numerical calculation is the concept of NuSAR. In this paper, the block scheme of NuSAR is modified to handle the translational variant case. Then a new calculation method of NuSAR is provided, which saves half of the memory compared with the existing calculation method. The provided new NuSAR is practical and can handle the spaceborne-airborne configuration.
