Abstract

This paper is concerned with imaging and moving target detection using a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) platform that is known as Gotcha. The SAR platform can interrogate a scene using an imperfect circular trajectory; we refer to this as nonlinear SAR data collection. This collection can make monostatic and quasi-monostatic measurements in the along-track domain. We present subaperture-based wavefront reconstruction algorithms for motion compensation and imaging from this nonlinear SAR database. We also discuss adaptive filtering algorithms to construct MTI imagery from the two receiver channels of the system. Results will be provided.
