Abstract

The designing and testing of a new Ka-band ground-based noise waveform synthetic aperture radar (GB NW-SAR) are presented. Its design is based upon new synthetic aperture antennas and noise radar technology. The authors present preliminary results of its indoor trials. The GB NW-SAR designed may be reconfigured for operation in mono-, bi- and multistatic (or MIMO) modes in both CW and pulse regimes using single- and dual-frequency modes to enhance range resolution via expanding the frequency bandwidth of the signal. Potential resolution of the GB NW-SAR is 15 cm both in range and azimuth. Results of indoor trials are presented for both SAR imaging and differential interferometry measurements. Designed and tested Ka-band GB NW-SAR is applicable for precise remote monitoring of various manmade or natural objects, such as ceilings and roofs of big halls and hangars, dams, bridges, TV towers etc.
