Abstract

The paper presents the development of a ground based bistatic receiver using TerraSAR-X as a transmitter. The receiver subsystems like antennas, low-noise amplifiers, mixers, filters, synthesizers, etc. have been developed using low-cost monolithic devices in order to allow affordable deployment and at the same time offer final year students a challenging SAR engineering project. First raw data have been acquired on the Barcelona harbor area that has been focused producing geocoded images well matched with existing maps. A preliminary interferogram have been also produced.
