  • Abstract
    First ground moving target indication (GMTI) and parameter estimation results obtained with the German TerraSAR-X/TanDEM-X radar satellite constellation are presented and discussed in the paper. For processing a dual-platform SAR-GMTI algorithm developed by the authors was used. This algorithm enables the estimation of the true geographical positions, the velocities and the headings of the detected moving vehicles with high accuracy.
