Space-borne technology and inversion techniques for radar

This presents recent progress of the state-of-the-art of space-borne radar technology in case of either earth-orbiting or planetary-orbiting satellites and space probes, respectively. In addition to that, recent progress is also discussed concerning specific inversion techniques to evaluate radar measurements; i.e., the art of deriving the relevant physical quantities to be determined such as terrain and depth profiles for planetary surface and/or subsurface structures ((3D)-profiles) from radar data measured depending on signal frequency, aspect angle, polarization, etc., as a function of time.
