Airborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) raw data are affected by motion errors. These are commonly accounted for via standard two-step motion compensation (MOCO) algorithm followed by the Precise Topography-and Aperture-dependent (PTA) procedure proposed some years ago. In this letter, we show how the azimuth-to-frequency mapping used by the PTA approach should be modified to fully account for the presence of uncompensated motion errors.

Abstract
Airborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) raw data are affected by motion errors. These are commonly accounted for via standard two-step motion compensation (MOCO) algorithm followed by the Precise Topography-and Aperture-dependent (PTA) procedure proposed some years ago. In this letter, we show how the azimuth-to-frequency mapping used by the PTA approach should be modified to fully account for the presence of uncompensated motion errors.File in questo prodotto:
