Abstract Because of the long integration time of Geosynchronous Earth Orbit Synthetic Aperture Radar (GEO SAR), the imaging algorithms based on linear trajectory module is not suit for GEO SAR, the imaging algorithms based on linear trajectory module may induce considerable distortion. Thus, this paper establishes the range equation of curve trajectory model by using the high order approximate based on the characters of the GEO SAR movements. Then, the two-dimensional spectrum is derived by the method of series reversion, based on which an improved Chirp Scaling (CS) imaging algorithm for GEO SAR based on curve trajectory model is presented. Simulation results show that the proposed range equation is more precise and the algorithm proposed is effective to correct the range-migration and to give high resolution imagery with the entire aperture.
