Lynx is a high resolution, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) that was designed and built by Sandia National Laboratories in collaboration with General Atomics (GA). The Lynx production weight is less than 120 lb. and has a slant range of 30 km moderate rain (4 mm/hr). It has operator selectable resolution and is capable of 0.1 m resolution in spotlight mode and 0.3 m resolution in stripmap mode. In ground moving target indicator mode, the minimum detectable velocity is 6 knots with a minimum target cross-section of 10 dBsm. In coherent change detection mode, Lynx makes registered, complex image comparisons either of 01 m resolution (minimum) spotlight images or of 0.3 m resolution (minimum) strip images. The Lynx user interface features a view manager that allows it to pan and zoom like a video camera.
