| More Details: | In this paper, the performances of spaceborne bistatic synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems are evaluated and compared with those of the conventional monostatic SAR system. Drawing on information on the altitude of satellites and the pulse repetition frequency of the system, the distance between the satellites carrying the transmitter and the receiver is first determined to then obtain the maximum observable width by overlapping the blind ranges. The performances of the bistatic SAR for two satellites at the same altitude moving parallel to each other at the same speed are evaluated, and the results are compared with those obtained from a monostatic SAR system located at left or right end of the baseline. The resolutions, noise equivalent sigma zero, and ambiguities of the bistatic SAR are evaluated based on the windows between blind incident angles of a timing diagram. Subsequently, the most appropriate window is determined by comparing the evaluated performances of the bistatic SAR. |
