Concept Development for Advanced Spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar

This work seeks to develop a novel instrument concept for an advanced spaceborne radar system that can measure terrestrial biomass, ecosystem structure and extent on a global scale.

The effort will focus on P-Band and L-band polarimetric radar architectures that employ advanced and innovative techniques to increase the science value of the measurements while achieving it at a lower cost.
