Abstract
A two-dimensional synthetic aperture radar (SAR) phase correction algorithm is described as a natural extension of a one-dimensional technique developed previously. It embodies many similarities to phase gradient speckle imaging and incorporates improvements in phase estimation. Diffraction limited performance has been obtained on actual SAR imagery regardless of scene content or phase error structure. The algorithm is computationally efficient, robust, and easily implemented on a general purpose computer or special purpose hardware.
