Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
During the past two decades, many countries have attached great importance to high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR systems, technologies, and applications. In August 2023,China had successfully launched the world's first geosynchronous-Earth-orbit SAR, Lutan-4. In addition, researchers from the United States, Britain, and Germany have conducted much research on geosynchronous-Earth-orbit SAR. It is generally believed that high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR will be an important development direction in the future, because of its large coverage, short revisit time, and strong anti-destruction ability. However, compared with conventional low-orbit spaceborne SAR, research on high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR is as-yet incomplete. Therefore, this Special Issue invites scholars to publish articles on the latest progress on high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR systems, technologies, and applications.
This Special Issue is the second volume of the issue High Earth Orbit Spaceborne SAR Systems, Technologies, and Applications”. On the basis of previous research results, the focus of this Special Issue is to report the latest progress on high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR systems, technologies, and applications. Specifically, it seeks research on (but not limited to) advanced radar technology, the latest high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR imaging theory, the latest moving-target indication methods for high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR, the latest interference-suppression methods for high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR, and the latest antenna technologies for high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR.
Potential topics for this Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Novel high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR missions, systems, and techniques.
- Imaging methods for high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR;
- Artificial intelligence in high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR applications;
- Moving target indication methods for high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR;
- On-board real-time processing of high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR images;
- Image recognition and interpretation methods for high-Earth-orbit spaceborne SAR;
- Integrated satellite-ground/air dual-functional sensing-communication techniques;
- Other related topics.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Remote Sensing is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
