Journal ArticleDOI
Doppler Parameter Estimation for Spaceborne Synthetic-Aperture Radars
TL;DR: This work proposes two techniques to estimate Doppler parameters for spaceborne synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) data processing using the coherent radar return and shows that these parameters can be estimated using accurate spacecraft ancillary data.
Journal ArticleDOI
A SAR correlation algorithm which accommodates large-range migration
M. Y. Jin,Chialin Wu +1 more
TL;DR: Simulation results provided here indicate that this processing algorithm yields a satisfactory compressed impulse response for SAR data with large-range migration whereas previous methods were subject to a broadening of the impulse response along range.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tradeoffs in the design of a spaceborne scanning pencil beam scatterometer: application to SeaWinds
TL;DR: The overall SeaWinds functional design and backscatter measurement approach are described, and the relative advantages of the pencil-beam technique are outlined, and trade-offs to optimize the transmit modulation bandwidth are presented.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
SeaWinds on QuikSCAT: sensor description and mission overview
TL;DR: The SeaWinds instrument is the first "pencilbeam" scatterometer to routinely measure ocean surface winds from space as discussed by the authors, which was used on the Japanese ADEOS-II mission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasat Synthetic-Aperture Radar Data Reduction Using Parallel Programmable Array Processors
TL;DR: A digital signal processing system that produces the SEASAT synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) imagery using a SEL 32/77 host minicomputer and three AP-120B array processors is presented.
