Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are disclosed for correcting synthetic aperture radar data to correct for gain errors in fast time. According to an embodiment, input data is received from a synthetic radar system representing returned data from an individual pulse. Data entropy optimization is performed to identify a gain correction configured to adjust the input data to minimize image intensity entropy to generate focused output data. The gain correction is applied to the input data to adjust data values in the input data to generate the focused output data.
