Bistatic SAR experiment, processing and results in spaceborne/stationary configuration

This paper shows a spaceborne/stationary bistatic synthetic aperture radar (BiSAR) experiment and a modified chirp scaling algorithm (CSA) is derived to effectively focus the experimental echo data, which has severe space variability. The imaging results show the success of the experiment and verify the feasibility of the algorithm. In addition, comparing to monostatic SAR results, it can be found that our BiSAR results have higher signal-to-noise rate (SNR) and more information about vegetation and edge.
