  • Abstract
    The combination of compact FM-CW technology and high resolution SAR techniques seems of special interest for the implementation of a low cost, airborne imaging radar. A project has been started to investigate the feasibility of FM-CW SAR. A system simulation is in development to estimate the performance of FM-CW SAR. The performance is probably limited by phase noise. Therefore, a study has been made of the effects of phase noise and a time domain description of phase noise has been developed.
