In this contribution we show the capabilities of the X-band TELAER airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) system. More specifically, this TELAER system has recently been upgraded according to an Italian National Research Council (CNR) funding. Moreover, CNR has entrusted the Institute for Electromagnetic Sensing of the Environment (IREA) for managing all the activities related to such a system upgrading. Thanks to this upgrading, the TELAER SAR system is now equipped with a multi-antenna configuration that allows carrying out single-pass interferometry. Bench-tests and flight-tests, aimed at evaluating the performances achievable with the upgraded system, were carried in January and February 2013. In this contribution we show some results achieved during these tests.

Abstract

In this contribution we show the capabilities of the X-band TELAER airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) system. More specifically, this TELAER system has recently been upgraded according to an Italian National Research Council (CNR) funding. Moreover, CNR has entrusted the Institute for Electromagnetic Sensing of the Environment (IREA) for managing all the activities related to such a system upgrading. Thanks to this upgrading, the TELAER SAR system is now equipped with a multi-antenna configuration that allows carrying out single-pass interferometry. Bench-tests and flight-tests, aimed at evaluating the performances achievable with the upgraded system, were carried in January and February 2013. In this contribution we show some results achieved during these tests.
