A review on designing antenna arrays for long range synthetic aperture radar

摘要

The design of the antenna array is one of the most important factors that govern the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) performance. This research presents a literature review on most manuscripts that have been published on the development of antenna arrays for long range SAR. Radiation pattern requirements to avoid both azimuth and range ambiguities have been introduced in this paper. The obtained results from this research will help in designing a high performance antenna array for Josaphat Microwave Remote Sensing Laboratory (JMRSL) SAR onboard microsatellite.
