Abstract
In geosynchronous synthetic aperture radar (SAR), due to the complex relative motion between the satellite and the target, and the effect of the curvature on the earth surface, the conventional imaging geometry for ground resolution analysis should be innovated. In this paper, the imaging geometry is advanced by adding a pitch angle. Then, based on the new geometry, the range resolution and the Doppler gradient resolution in the ground plane are deduced using gradient method. Finally, the resolution analysis is verified by simulation results.
