System verification to verify the overall operation and performance of synthetic aperture radar differs from that of normal radar in that the radar sensor (including sensor antenna and sensor transceiver) is mounted on a flying body and is moving at high speed. Since the desired received signal modulated at the Doppler frequency can only be obtained for the first time, it is extremely difficult to do this in a real environment. Conventionally,
A radar sensor was fixed on the ground, and system verification was performed using the received signal obtained by emitting radio waves from an object (aircraft or satellite) moving at high speed above it. However, with this method, it is impossible to perform system verification indoors, and since the target is a single point, synthetic aperture radar cannot be used when observing targets with complex shapes such as terrain or sea surfaces. The drawback was that it was not possible to verify the operation and performance of the system.
