Abstract
Synthetic aperture time (SAT) is a crucial component for acquiring high-quality synthetic aperture radar images with an excellent target cross-range resolution. SAT is analyzed using the range and Doppler cone angle at the center of the synthetic aperture length (SAL). However, in a real flight mission setting, only the range and Doppler cone angle at the SAL’s starting point are determined. Therefore, we present a method for estimating the range and Doppler cone angle at the center of the SAL to calculate an accurate SAT that is suitable for the spatial resolution of the assigned mission. We performed an iterative analysis of SAT at the range and Doppler cone angle at the starting point of the SAL (original SAT) and at the center of the SAL (proposed SAT). Consequently, the proposed SAT decreased by 0.69%–16.14% compared to the original SAT at a resolution of 0.1–3.0 m.
