Introduction to ArcSAR
GB-SAR(KIGAM-KNU)
DInSAR tested: Phase stability of 1° (0.1mm range) was achieved for several hours for
stable reflectors, rendering phase change of 10 ° to be assured (1mm accuracy).
PSInSAR displacement measurement: R2=0.9999 achieved.
GB-SAR can be used for various applications such as:
Safety monitoring of natural or anthropogenic structures
Microwave backscattering properties of target

Conclusions
Image focusing algorithms for ArcSAR were developed in polar coordinates.
The Deramp-FFT algorithm was used for ArcSAR Spot Mode and the Range-Doppler
algorithm for ArcSAR Scan Mode.
Comparisons of image resolutions between various ground-based radar systems
confirmed the advantages of ArcSAR:
ArcSAR Spot Mode > Linear-scanning GBSAR > ArcSAR Spot Mode > ArcRAR

for various applications such as regional mapping and environmental hazard
monitoring.
