Results for tag: "Synthetic Aperture Radar"

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is a type of radar system that uses advanced signal processing techniques to generate high-resolution images of the Earth's surface. It is used for a variety of applications, including mapping, surveillance, and reconnaissance. SAR systems are typically mounted on aircraft, satellites, or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). SAR systems use a combination of radar and signal processing techniques to generate high-resolution images of the Earth's surface. The radar transmits a signal that is reflected off the surface of the Earth and then received by the radar system. The signal is then processed to create an image of the surface. SAR systems can be used to detect objects on the ground, such as buildings, vehicles, and terrain features. SAR systems are used in a variety of industries, including defense, agriculture, and energy. They are also used for scientific research, such as studying the Earth's climate and environment. Some of the major companies in the SAR market include Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, Thales Group, and Airbus. Show Less Read more
