Abstract :
There are many advantages to put the Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) system up in the stratosphere. Compared with the Ground-based ISAR system, one problem of the Stratospheric ISAR system is the platform drifting. This paper established models for the different positions of the airship and investigated the effects of drifting on imaging. The results of simulations for Stratospheric ISAR system show effectiveness of the models.
