Bistatic Synthetic Aperture Radar covers bistatic SAR in a comprehensive way, presenting theory, method and techniques, as well as the most recent research and near-future applications. The book begins with imaging principles and characteristics of monostatic SAR, moving on to common and novel problems before presenting theories, methods and experimental system design. The title presents the design of experimental systems, research results and experimental verification. It gives key knowledge from a leading research group, including one of the earliest bistatic side-looking SAR experiments and the first bistatic forward-looking SAR experiment in the world that used two aircraft.
Six chapters cover imaging theory, imaging algorithms, parameter estimation, motion compensation, synchronization and experimental verification. The book describes physical concepts simply and clearly and provides concise mathematical derivations.
