  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING OPERATIONAL PARAMETERS OF A SYNTHETIC APERTURE RADAR
    Publication number: 20230314598
    Abstract: A method of determining feasible swaths of a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) includes determining a first plurality of swaths that are transmit-feasible and nadir-feasible, determining a second plurality of swaths of the first plurality of swaths that satisfy at least one hard constraint, the at least one hard constraint being an image quality constraint or a system constraint, and generating a graph of the second plurality of swaths. The method may include assigning each feasible swath of the second plurality of swaths to a node in a directed graph, and adding a directed edge in the directed graph when a pair of swaths of the second plurality of swaths satisfy one or more defined constraints. The method may include configuring the SAR to operate based at least in part on the generated graph of the second plurality of swaths. Operating the configured SAR may include obtaining SAR images.
