For a real aperture radar, the physical antenna length must be considerably longer than the wavelength in order to achieve higher azimuth resolution. Obviously, it has a limit at which the dimension of the antenna is not realistic to be put onboard an aircraft or a satellite. 6, record 2, English, - real%2Daperture%20radar

Deux systèmes caractérisent les radars latéraux. Le radar à ouverture réelle, et le radar à antenne synthétique. Les facteurs intrinsèques au système radar qui influencent le potentiel de celui-ci sont entre autres : les longueurs d'onde utilisées par le capteur actif, la polarisation de ces ondes, l'angle de visée, l'angle d'incidence, et la résolution. Quant aux paramètres externes au système, on peut citer : la rugosité de la surface objet, le complexe diélectrique, ainsi que la pente et l'orientation (Lewis A. & Henderson F., 1998). 8, record 2, French, - radar%20%C3%A0%20ouverture%20r%C3%A9elle
