About PALSAR-3
PALSAR-3 is a L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). The L-band radar technology has continuously been developed in Japan.
The observaiton swath width of PALSAR-3 will improve while maintaining the ground resolution, which is achieved using digital beamforming techniques.
- Regular stripmap mode observation is right-side, incidence angle of 30-44 degrees (200km swath).
- The other beams and left-side observation are used for quick disaster monitoring.
