Computational Burden in Moving Target Detection in Multi-Channel SAR using Phase Interferometry

By Dr. Probal Sanyal , Dr. David Zasada , Richard Perry

The authors have shown in several earlier papers that large ground moving targets can be detected fairly reliably via phase-interferometry in multi-channel Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images of the ground.

The authors have shown in several earlier papers that large ground moving targets can be detected fairly reliably via phase-interferometry in multi-channel Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images of the ground. In a interferometric phase image, all points on the ground nominally appear as a continuum of phase differences while the moving targets appear as discontinuities. By detecting these anomalies, it is possible to detect moving targets in the SAR.
