This paper briefly addresses the basic principle of multi aperture wide swath synthetic aperture radar (MAWS SAR) and presents three imaging algorithms of MAWS SAR (namely A、 B and C, respectively). The algorithm A first obtains return signal for each swath from the hybrid signal, then compresses signal in the range direction. The algorithm B first compresses signal in the range direction, then obtains return signal for each swath from the hybrid signal. The algorithm C is similar to algorithm A, only ...
