Ultra-High Resolution and Long Range X-Band Airborne SAR System

Since a few years ONERA has been investing in high performance radar demonstrators. It has been contracted by the French MoD to develop a X-Band high peak power and large bandwidth sensor for airborne experiments dedicated to UHR (Ultra High Resolution) imagery. This paper will describe the RAMSES-NG X-UHR sensor design and results with airborne High Resolution Imagery.
