Report Style: Radar SAR

This Access report provides the dynamic (spot) SAR mode radar performance data between the radar system and the selected spot point, which might be an STK object such as a facility. The data includes the time-resolution product, max scene width, integration time, azimuth and range resolutions, area rate, noise density, SNR, SCR, CNR, and PTCR.

Data Provider:Radar SAR

Type: Time-varying data.

Availability: Reports | Dynamic Displays

ColumnColumn NameElementTypeDimensionDescription
1AccessAccess NumberIntegerUnitlessThe number of the current access interval from the list of access intervals.
2TimeTimeReal Number or TextDateTime.
3SAR Time-Resolution ProdSAR Time-Resolution ProdReal NumberSARTimeResProdComputed as lambda/(2 * xyAngleRate)
4SAR Max Scene WidthSAR Max Scene WidthReal NumberDistanceRatio of the quantity (pulse repetition frequency * azimuth resolution time) to the azimuth broadening factor
5SAR Integration TimeSAR Integration TimeReal NumberTimeThe integration time for the dwell of pulses; computed as (SAR Time Resolution / Az Resolution); you can also enter this value yourself
6SAR Az ResolutionSAR Az ResolutionReal NumberDistanceComputed as (lambda * dopplerRes)/(2 * xyAngleRate*range); you may also enter the value based on radar system specs
7SAR Rng ResolutionSAR Rng ResolutionReal NumberDistanceComputed as (c * Pulse Width)/(2 * Pulse Compression Ratio); you may also enter this value based on radar system specs
8SAR Area RateSAR Area RateReal NumberArea RateComputed as (sceneDepth * maxdSceneWidth)/(cos(Grazing) * integrationTime)
9Noise DensityNoise DensityReal NumberPowerSpectralDensityThe composite value of the carrier to noise density ratio (C/No) across all hops of an analog bent pipe communications link where C is the carrier power and No = kT (Boltzmann's constant x system temperature) is the noise density. Note that C/No is equivalent to C/N with a normalized Bandwidth (B=1).
