Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) remote sensing has undergone a tremendous development in recent years. Recently, the trend in sensor development is moving towards constellations of sensors, as well as bi-static missions and smaller companion satellites, to extend the existing missions toward bi-static capabilities. The tremendous success of the TanDEM mission can be seen as the spark lightning the growing interest in bi-static mission concepts. Additionally, geo-synchronous missions will offer unique temporal resolutions, and are also in an early development stage. With upcoming sensors, like TanDEM-L and LuTan-1, as well as other concepts, a deeper look into the recent developments in bi-static/multi-static SAR processing and applications is essential for the widespread usage of the expected data.
We would like to invite you to submit articles about your recent research, with respect to the following topics:
- Bi-/multi-static SAR processing
- Applications for bi-static SAR processing and DEM production
- Geo-synchronous concept and processing
- Bi-/multi-static and geosynchronous SAR missions
- Mono-static pursuit data SAR processing and applications

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.
