Sixty years after its birth, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) evolved
as a key player of earth observation, and it is continually
upgraded by enhanced hardware functionality and improved overall
performance in response to user requirements. The basic information
gained by SAR includes the backscattering coefficient of targets,
their phases (the truncated distance between SAR and its targets),
and their polarization dependence. The spatiotemporal combination
of the multiple data operated on the satellite or aircraft
significantly increases its sensitivity to detect changes on earth,
including temporal variations of the planet in amplitude and the
interferometric change for monitoring disasters; deformations
caused by earthquakes, volcanic activity, and landslides;
environmental changes; ship detection; and so on. Earth-orbiting
satellites with the appropriate sensors can detect environmental
changes because of their large spatial coverage and availability.
Imaging from Spaceborne and Airborne SARs, Calibration, and
Applications provides A-to-Z information regarding SAR researches
through 15 chapters that focus on the JAXA L-band SAR, including
hardware description, principles of SAR imaging, theoretical
description of SAR imaging and error, ScanSAR imaging, polarimetric
calibration, inflight antenna pattern, SAR geometry and ortho
rectification, SAR calibration, defocusing for moving targets,
large-scale SAR imaging and mosaic, interferometric SAR processing,
irregularities, application, and forest estimation. Sample data are
created by using L-band SAR, JERS-1, PALSAR, PALSAR-2, and
Pi-SAR-L2. This book is based on the author's experience as a
principal researcher at JAXA with responsibilities for L-band SAR
operation and researches. It reveals the inside of SAR processing
and application researches performed at JAXA, which makes this book
a valuable reference for a wide range of SAR researchers,
professionals, and students.
