The Shuttle Imaging Radar-C (SIR-C) experiment will provide increased capability over Seasat and the two previous Shuttle Imaging Radars by acquiring digital images simultaneously at two microwave frequencies (L- and C-band) with multiple signal polarizations (HH, VV, HV, VH). The SIR-C is a dual bandwidth system so that investigators can choose a high or low resolution mode (20 and 10 MHz, respectively). An X-band SAR with VV polarization will be flown with SIR-C, resulting in a three-frequency capability. The SIR-C prototype data will be acquired using an airborne imaging radar to test designs that will be implemented on SIR-C, to develop the overall calibration strategy for SIR-C, and to develop data analysis tools for SIR-C data.
