258 CHAPTER 6 Spotlight Synthetic Aperture <strong>Radar</strong>8. The transmitted bandwidth <strong>of</strong> a radar is <strong>of</strong>ten idealized as having a constant valueacross the band. What happens to the range pr<strong>of</strong>ile if the spectrum amplitude exhibitsa sinusoidal variation (<strong>of</strong>ten called passband ripple)? Is the cross-range character <strong>of</strong>the image affected?9. Figures 6-11 and 6-12 depict the fact that spotlight SAR imagery is usually formedby retaining the largest rectangular region that can be inscribed in the annular spectralsupport <strong>of</strong> the radar data. Write the expressions for the dimensions <strong>of</strong> this rectangle.10. Assuming the cross-range resolution is fixed, does increasing the radar’s center frequencyreduce or increase the effect <strong>of</strong> quadratic phase error?
