Abstract	Bistatic synthetic aperture radar data are more challenging to process than the common monostatic counterparts because the flight geometry is more complicated and the data are usually nonstationary. Whereas time-domain algorithms can handle general bistatic cases, they are very inefficient; therefore, frequency-domain methods are preferred. Several frequency-domain monostatic algorithms have been modified to handle a limited number of bistatic cases, but a general algorithm is sought, which can handle cases such as nonequal platform velocities, nonparallel flight tracks, and high squints. In this paper, we modify the nonlinear chirp scaling (NLCS) algorithm to handle a general case of bistatic data. The key is to use a linear range cell migration correction to reduce the range-azimuth coupling, an NLCS to precondition the data for azimuth compression, and a series expansion to obtain an accurate form of the signal spectrum. The azimuth nonstationarity is handled through the use of invariance regions. Simulations have shown that the modified NLCS algorithm can handle data with more complicated bistatic geometries than the previous algorithms.
