Abstract :
Agile small SAR has broad applications, due to its high mobility and wide coverage. In this paper, we put forward an attitude steering strategy for agile small SAR satellite with sliding spotlight mode. This attitude steering strategy contains three steps. And according to the results of simulation, this attitude steering strategy has a very good performance.
