Radar imaging of ground moving targets

We analyze the effect of target motion on synthetic aperture radar images and discuss how a multi-aperture radar can detect, focus and relocate moving targets in clutter. AN/APY-6 radar data is used for analyzing the radar imaging of ground moving targets. Some applications of the time-frequency transform to detect and focus moving targets are also discussed.
