Based on the experiences of the Department of Information
Engineering of the University of Pisa and the Radar and
Surveillance System (RaSS) national laboratory of the National
Interuniversity Consortium of Telecommunication (CNIT), Radar
Imaging for Maritime Observation presents the most recent results
in radar imaging for maritime observation. The book explores both
the areas of sea surface remote sensing and maritime surveillance
providing key theoretical concepts of SAR and ISAR imaging and more
advanced and ad-hoc techniques for applications in maritime
scenarios. The book is organized in two sections. The first section
discusses the fundamentals of standard SAR/ISAR processing and
novel imaging techniques, such as Bistatic, Passive, and, 3D
Interferometric ISAR. The second section focuses on the
applications and results obtained by processing real data from
maritime observations like SAR image processing for oil spill,
detection in SAR images and fractal analysis. Useful to both
beginners and experts in maritime observation, this book provides
several examples of (mainly space-borne) radar imaging of maritime
targets. Nevertheless, the same principles and techniques apply to
the case of manned or unmanned carriers and to ground and air
moving targets.

Synthetic aperture radar and inverse synthetic aperture radar
(SAR/ISAR) images have been largely used for monitoring small to
large areas and more specifically for target
recognition/identification. However, the technology has limitations
due to the use of classical monostatic, single channel, single
frequency and single polarization systems. To overcome these
limitations, solutions have been proposed that show the benefit of
using multiple frequencies, spatial channels, polarisations and
perspective, in one word multi-dimensional radar imaging systems
when dealing with non-cooperative targets. Multidimensional Radar
Imaging introduces a new framework within which to address the
problem of radar imaging and target recognition as it jointly looks
at optimising the use of multiple channels to significantly
outperform classical radar imaging systems. It has been used in the
military within NATO for the last few years and the technology is
now declassified. Topics covered include three-dimensional ISAR;
STAP-ISAR; wide-band multi-look passive ISAR; radar tomography;
multistatic PCL-SAR; fusion of multistatic ISAR images with large
angular separation; rotor blade parameter estimation with
multichannel passive radar; multistatic 3D ISAR imaging of maritime
targets; challenges of semi-cooperative bi/multistatic SAR using
Cosmo SkyMEd as an illuminator; and lessons learnt from the NATO
SET-196 RTG on multi-channel/multi-static radar imaging of
non-cooperative targets.
This book is based on the latest research on ISAR imaging of moving
targets and non-cooperative target recognition (NCTR). It focuses
on how to generate high-resolution ISAR images of targets of
interest and how to deal with factors that affect the process. It
also looks at extracting information from ISAR images and
performing non-cooperative target recognition (NCTR) of moving
targets."Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar Imaging" covers the more
detailed image formation and auto-focusing algorithms as well as
applications of these algorithms to real world ISAR imaging. It
also includes MATLAB source codes for the simulation of radar
scattering from moving targets, implementations of ISAR image
formation, auto-focusing, and imaging time selection, and
simulations of bi-static and multi-static ISAR imaging
algorithms."Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar Imaging" provides
readers with a working knowledge of the subject. Some key topics
include: monostatic and bistatic RCS models for ISAR, point spread
function and 2-D imaging, polarimetric ISAR, interferometry in
ISAR, bandwidth extrapolation technique in ISAR, multi-window
spectrum estimation, clean algorithm, effect of rotational motion
on ISAR imaging, selection of optimal imaging timewindow, ISAR
imaging in low SNR and in strong clutter, micro-Doppler features in
ISAR, estimation of rotation in ISAR, multipath in ISAR, distortion
analysis for bistatic ISAR, emulated bistatic ISAR, and multistatic
ISAR.
