Abstract :
A parallel SAR imaging algorithm based on RDA is presented in this paper on the basis of the existing sequential algorithms after deeply studying parallel processing of SAR imaging. The algorithm which is on task level adapts well to the parallel processing system with high communication performance. The results of experiments on IBM blade server verify that the algorithm has highly real time property and parallel efficiency.
