Abstract

For the spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR), it is difficult to obtain high resolution and wide width at the same time. This paper proposes a novel imaging system based on tandem SAR satellites, where one obtains coarse resolution and wide swath by the scanning mode, and the other obtains the undersampled echo from the same swath. The high resolution is achieved by associating the tandem SARs’ echo and using the minimum-energy-based algorithm. Finally, a high-resolution wide-swath SAR system is designed, and its imaging performance is verified by simulated data and real airborne SAR data.
