Abstract-The possibility of employing highly-elliptical-orbit (HEO) satellites for SAR imaging is investigated. A constellation of two satellites in the Tundra orbits, which are capable of covering all the high-latitude areas, are chosen as the platforms for SAR imaging. The received signal is processed with an improved frequency-domain algorithm (FDA) to reconstruct the image. Simulation results verify that the proposed method can produce better SAR images with less computational load and memory than the conventional FDA.
