Abstract

A dual-beam along-track interferometric synthetic aperture radar which is self contained within an aircraft pod has been developed to study coastal regions. System hardware is described. Initial test flights aboard the NOAA WP-3D research aircraft were performed to evaluate system performance over land and water surfaces. Notable look-angle dependencies are observed in the sea surface NRCS under very low wind conditions.
