Abstract :
This paper present an overview of the research being carried out by the University of Birmingham in the area of space-surface bistatic radar (SS-BSAR). Global navigation satellite system is considered as the transmitter of opportunity. It also highlights some of the problems faced when a receiver is mounted on a real aircraft. New experimental and imaging results are also presented.
