MetaSensing to deliver two airborne SAR sensors

MetaSensing has been awarded a contract to deliver two airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) systems to a Governmental Research Agency in the Asia Pacific region.

The system features the airborne segment with the SAR instrument, operator computer with control software and data quality check, and the real-time flight management system.

The ground-segment instead sees the End-to-End airborne SAR Processor and the post-processing tool for Inverse SAR.

The SAR sensors operate at X- and Ku-band with a resolution of up to 25 cm. Each sensor is equipped with two transmit and two receive channels for fully polarimetric and/or interferometric acquisitions at each frequency band.

The SAR sensors are principally meant to observe the ocean surface characteristics and for land monitoring.
