this book provides a comprehensive overview of synthetic aperture radar (sar) signal processing, with matlab algorithms for implementation. the book is organized into eight chapters, each covering different aspects of sar technology. the first chapter discusses range imaging, including system models, matched filtering, range resolution, data acquisition, and signal processing techniques. the second chapter focuses on cross-range imaging, covering system models, spherical pm signals, matched filtering, cross-range resolution, and data acquisition. the third chapter explores sar radiation patterns, including transmit mode radar radiation patterns, three-dimensional spatial domain radiation patterns, and polarization. the fourth chapter presents a generic sar system, covering fast-time and slow-time fourier transforms, digital reconstruction, motion compensation, and polar format processing. the fifth chapter discusses spotlight sar, including mechanically and electronically beam-steered systems, signal bandwidth, resolution, and image processing. the sixth chapter covers stripmap sar, including system models, reconstruction, bandwidth, resolution, data acquisition, and moving target detection. the seventh chapter discusses circular sar, including system models, reconstruction, bandwidth, resolution, data acquisition, and three-dimensional imaging. the eighth chapter covers monopulse sar, including along-track moving target detectors, effects of uncalibrated and unstable radars, signal subspace registration, and multistatic isar. the book also includes acknowledgments for the support received from various government agencies and private industries, and a bibliography. the content is supported by matlab algorithms for implementation and includes detailed mathematical notations and symbols.this book provides a comprehensive overview of synthetic aperture radar (sar) signal processing, with matlab algorithms for implementation. the book is organized into eight chapters, each covering different aspects of sar technology. the first chapter discusses range imaging, including system models, matched filtering, range resolution, data acquisition, and signal processing techniques. the second chapter focuses on cross-range imaging, covering system models, spherical pm signals, matched filtering, cross-range resolution, and data acquisition. the third chapter explores sar radiation patterns, including transmit mode radar radiation patterns, three-dimensional spatial domain radiation patterns, and polarization. the fourth chapter presents a generic sar system, covering fast-time and slow-time fourier transforms, digital reconstruction, motion compensation, and polar format processing. the fifth chapter discusses spotlight sar, including mechanically and electronically beam-steered systems, signal bandwidth, resolution, and image processing. the sixth chapter covers stripmap sar, including system models, reconstruction, bandwidth, resolution, data acquisition, and moving target detection. the seventh chapter discusses circular sar, including system models, reconstruction, bandwidth, resolution, data acquisition, and three-dimensional imaging. the eighth chapter covers monopulse sar, including along-track moving target detectors, effects of uncalibrated and unstable radars, signal subspace registration, and multistatic isar. the book also includes acknowledgments for the support received from various government agencies and private industries, and a bibliography. the content is supported by matlab algorithms for implementation and includes detailed mathematical notations and symbols.
