Abstract

Orbital stations can be an alternative platform choice for SAR payloads besides professional remote sensing satellite platform. However, such platform cannot provide as precision motion parameters as remote sensing satellite platform for SAR imaging due to its unique structure. The influence of motion parameter errors on SAR azimuth resolution degradation should be taken into consideration. Selecting the second order phase error caused by Doppler frequency rate with error as intermediate variable between motion parameter errors and SAR azimuth resolution, this paper proposed a Monte Carlo simulation model has been set up to obtain the specific probability distribution of SAR azimuth resolution degradation. A typical Monte Carlo simulation result is given to show the effectiveness of the method and may help actual SAR payload system design.
