Abstract

A general overview of KOMPSAT-5 SAR Processors chain and Software Infrastructure is provided, focusing on design drivers and key performance, mainly in terms of computation time and image quality parameters. An overview of the SAR Standard Products generated in the frame of KOMPSAT-5 mission is also depicted along with a sketch of the whole SAR Processors chain architecture. The End to End (E2E) test approach relies upon the generation of SAR Payload simulated RAW data combined with final image quality parameter estimation.
