SAR-MTI processing of multi-channel airborne radar measurement (MCARM) data

This paper addresses the problem of developing signal processing, moving target detection, and image formation algorithms, for an airborne array radar system, called Multi-Channel Airborne Radar Measurement (MCARM), developed by the Air Force Research Laboratory at Rome, New York. Our approach is based on interpreting the MCARM data via a multichannel SAR system. SAR imaging and blind calibration of a dual along-track SAR-MTI system are then used for the MCARM data.
