Phaseless Radar Coincidence Imaging via Low-Rank Matrix Recovery Theory

Phaseless synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is a novel, waveform-diverse imaging approach which may have profound implications in system design, cost, and robustness for remote sensing applications. Phaseless image reconstruction contributes towards the development of distributed, multi-static SAR systems that can be deployed on a large number of small, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with benefits in robustness, cost, increased spatial diversity, accuracy, resolution and ability to operate in contested environments.
