2308428 – Spaceborne Radar Remote Sensing

The lecture covers aspects of spaceborne radar systems as well as an overview of new technologies and future developments.

General Information

Important Information
In the lecture the students will obtain a profound knowledge on the fundamentals, theory and applications of spaceborne radar systems. Students will understand the principle and function of synthetic aperture radars (SAR). After completing the course the students shall be able to explain the theory, techniques, algorithms for data processing and system concepts as well as to report on several applications examples.
