  • Abstract
    This article focuses on methodologies with recurrent use to code examples that try to couple with the flow of the main steps of the SAR processing. The possibility to be comprehensive was prevented by the wide scenario of variations of the focusing algorithm as well as the spread of applications. The reader should look at this work as a sample of possibilities offered by this new technology and a collection of suggestions and considerations that may guide to new applications and horizons.
