Abstract :
Low-frequency synthetic aperture radars (SARs) have coherent integration times that can often be several minutes long. This correspondence describes the observed trajectories of moving targets in low-frequency SAR images for various target motions and presents examples of the effects of changes in the target speed and direction.
