METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR COMPENSATING FOR A PARAMETER CHANGE IN A SYNTHETIC APERTURE IMAGING SYSTEM

There is described a method for processing data generated by a synthetic aperture imaging system, comprising: receiving raw data representative of electromagnetic signals reflected by a target area to be imaged; receiving a parameter change for the synthetic aperture imaging system; digitally correcting the raw data in accordance with the parameter change, thereby compensating for the parameter change in order to obtain corrected data; and generating an image of the target area using the corrected data.
