Systems and Methods for Determining Operational Parameters of a Synthetic Aperture Radar
18 Aug 22
A method of determining feasible swaths of a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) includes determining a first plurality of swaths that are transmit-feasible and nadir-feasible, determining a second plurality of swaths of the first plurality of swaths that satisfy at least one hard constraint, the at least one hard constraint being an image quality constraint or a system constraint, and generating a graph of the second plurality of swaths.

3 Mar 22
A synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is operable in an interrogation mode and in a self-imaging mode, the self-imaging mode entered in response to determining a response to interrogation pulses have been received from a ground terminal and position information specifying a ground location has been received from the ground terminal.

Utility
Apparatus and Methods for a Synthetic Aperture Radar with Self-cueing
6 May 20
A synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system and method of operation advantageously implements dynamic self-cueing or autonomous cueing of successive high-resolution SAR data collection based on previously collected wide-swath SAR data, for instance without the intervention of ground-based resources.

Apparatus and Methods for a Synthetic Aperture Radar with Multi-aperture Antenna
1 Apr 20
A Spotlight SAR imaging mode is implemented by a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system in which an SAR controller intentionally spoils a transmit beam of the SAR antenna to form a spoiled transmit beam.

Utility
Synthetic Aperture Radar Imaging Apparatus and Methods for Moving Targets
25 Mar 20
A synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system may employ SAR imaging to advantageously estimate or monitor a transit characteristic (e.g., velocity, acceleration) of a vehicle, for example a ground based vehicle or water based vehicle.
