Questions and Answers

What is the primary factor affecting the azimuth resolution in SLAR systems?

  • Slant range of the radar beam
  • Frequency of the radar signal
  • Polarization of the radar waves
  • Aperture length of the antenna (correct)

    • What is the main limitation of the SLAR system?

  • High frequency operation
  • Moderate to low azimuth resolution (correct)
  • High power consumption
  • Short aperture length

    • What is the condition for two objects on the ground to be imaged separately in SLAR?

  • They must have the same slant range
  • They must be at the same altitude
  • They must not be within the radar beam at the same time (correct)
  • They must have the same frequency
