Abstract
“Battlefield awareness” is critical to the success of future military operations. Existing and new sensor platforms will provide the necessary surveillance data; DARPA is developing the systems needed to turn the sensor data into meaningful information for the commanders. A central thrust of these efforts exploits the synergistic relationship between SAR and MTI radar. Used together, they offer comprehensive coverage of the battlefield
