Abstract
We investigate the space-variance of the synthetic aperture radar (SAR ) transfer function, due to focus depth variation and Earth rotation e ffect. We introduce a procedure for efficient space-variance compensat ion which is based on the use of a nonstandard Fourier transform (FT). A number of experiments confirming theoretical results are presented.
