The High Resolution Wide Swath (HRWS) system opens up new horizons for spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging. In order to best exploit the HRWS capabilities as successor of the current Sentinel-1 mission, a study focused on the HRWS applications was recently founded by the European Space Agency. Within this study, a new operational mode, denoted as Beam-Switch Wide Swath (BSWS), was proposed...
ALOS-Next/Tandem-L is a proposal for a highly innovative L-band SAR satellite mission for the global observation of dynamic processes on the Earth's surface with hitherto unparalleled quality and resolution. It is based on a collaboration between DLR and JAXA which started with a pre-phase A study in 2013 and is currently undergoing a phase A study. Thanks to the novel imaging techniques and the vast...
The paper discusses the implementation of a quasi-geostationary MIMO Synthetic Aperture Radar swarm, also defined as ARGOS in [1]. Such system combines the all-time-all-weather image capability of a SAR, with the resolution enhance, robustness and scalability of a swarm and the continuous observation provide by the geostationary orbit. Two C-band concepts are analyzed in details that differ for the...
