Bistatic SAR Image Formation and Interferometric Processing for the Stereoid Earth Explorer 10 Candidate Mission

This paper addresses the aspects of image formation and interferometric processing in the frame of the STEREOID Earth Explorer 10 candidate mission. In particular, the large along-track baseline configuration (approx. 250 km), which results in a high Doppler centroid, will be addressed in terms of bistatic SAR image formation and interferometric processing. The proposed focusing algorithm is validated with point-target simulations, while the interferometric investigations are performed using raw data generated with a bistatic end-to-end simulator.Accepted Author ManuscriptMathematical Geodesy and Positionin
