Abstract

In this paper, the question of the parameter-choice of RDM (Reflectivity Displacement Method) for the radar system that has a narrow azimuth antenna beam is discussed and the important factors that determine the choice of the parameters are proposed. Experiments using raw data of L-SAR which is the authors´ own radar system that has an azimuth beam of only 9° shows that good detection result can be achieved when applied these principles for parameter-choice
