Abstract

Radars are among the best exponents of radio-frequency (RF)/microwave devices for remote sensing [1], [2]. Long-range radars have demonstrated outstanding potential not only for defense/security environments, such as the detection, location, and tracking of targets, but also on a plurality of civilian scenarios, such as meteorological/weather measurement tasks, imaging of the Earth´s surface through synthetic aperture radar (SAR) techniques, monitoring of animal migrations, and many others [3]-[7].
