The SAR contains sophisticated electronics that feed a state-of-the-art distributed active phased-array antenna consisting of 512 transmit/receive modules(TRMs) with radio frequency(RF) and power distribution networks. Each TRM feeds a dual-polarization patch radiated subarray. This provides increased flexibility and capability over other commercial SAR remote sensing satellites. Thus, RADARSAT-2 will offer high quality products, including selectable polarization and fully polarimetric data, ultra-fine images with spatial resolution of 3 m, and a moving object detection experiment(MODEX) imaging mode. 2, record 2, English, - transmit%2Freceive%20module

Le SAR comprend un système électronique sophistiqué qui alimente une antenne active à réseau d'éléments en phase qui consiste en 512 modules de transmission-réception (TRM) avec des réseaux de distribution de puissance et fréquences radio. Chaque TRM alimente une pièce à polarisation double du sous-réseau. Ceci permet une flexibilité et une capacité accrues par rapport aux satellites SAR commerciaux existants. RADARSAT-2 sera donc en mesure de générer des produits de très haute qualité incluant une sélection de polarisation et des données polarimétriques, un mode d'imagerie ultra-fin d'une résolution spatiale de trois mètres, ainsi qu'un mode expérimental de détection des objets en mouvements (MODEX). 2, record 2, French, - module%20d%27%C3%A9mission%20et%20de%20r%C3%A9ception
