Radar Signal 3D Graph Using MATLAB

Abstract:

One of methods in remote sensing is Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). When combined with Range Doppler Algorithm (RDA) can produce smaller radar resolution only by using normal sized antenna placed at platform. RDA is able to generate much wider aperture " synthetic " antenna, resulting very narrow beam-width when reach earth's ground. By using already established 2D SAR methods in accuracy and processing speed this 3D SAR simulation was developed. Simulated on 15 x 15 pixels grayscale targets at different heights, 3D SAR developed on this research can detect object's height accurately. This simulation was developed using JAVA as steppingstone in implementing SAR image processing in small system like embedded system or micro computing which normally using C programming language.
