MiniSAR is a smaller, lighter and more power-efficient version of a traditional Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) system. MiniSAR is deigned primarily for military purposes, but civil usage is also possible.
MiniSAR supports GMTI and MMTI operations and can be used to cue other sensors like infrared/optical cameras. MiniSAR provides sensor fusion capabilities.
MiniSAR can also be used for SAR interferometry. MiniSAR is designed for use in low-altitude UAVs and manned platforms. MiniSAR has a weight of 30 kg, including three antenna panels (45 cm) of 15 cm each. MiniSAR offers state-of-the-art technology at X-band, with Active Phased Array. scalable Antenna Technology. The operating modes MiniSAR supports are stripmap, spotlight, forward- and side-looking enhanced ground moving target indicator, across- and repeat-pass interferometric SAR.
ZoomSAR: 0.3 to 1 m resolution in strip map mode; 0.05 m in spotlight mode withat least 1 km swath in high resolution. Swath of MiniSAR can be increased, at the expense of resolution.
Minimum Detectable Velocity (MDV) of 3 km/h with 0.7 km/h accuracy. Simultaneous SAR and MTI capability.
MiniSAR is an all-weather sensor that can provide photograph-like images through clouds, rain, or fog, day or night. The MiniSAR radar operates in X-band, with a centre frequency of about 10 GHz.
