Abstract
Described is a stripmap SAR system on a vehicle comprising an antenna that is fixed and directed outward from the side of the vehicle, a SAR sensor, a storage, and a computing device. The computing device comprises a memory, one or more processing units, and a machine-readable medium on the memory. The machine-readable medium stores instructions that, when executed by the one or more processing units, cause the stripmap SAR system to perform various operations. The operations comprise: receiving stripmap range profile data associated with observed views of a scene; transforming the received stripmap range profile data into partial circular range profile data; comparing the partial circular range profile data to a template range profile data of the scene; and estimating registration parameters associated with the partial circular range profile data relative to the template range profile data to determine a deviation from the template range profile data.
