SAR-C (EOS-04)
C-band synthetic aperture radar payload flown on EOS-04 / RISAT-1A.
SAR-C (EOS-04) is the C-band synthetic aperture radar payload flown on EOS-04 / RISAT-1A, using active microwave imaging for orbital SAR collection.[1][2][3] Its working centre frequency is 5.350 GHz, while NRSC EOS-04 material also gives 5.4 GHz for the C-band payload, so buyers should treat frequency matching as a 5.35-5.4 GHz C-band context rather than a separate sensor variant.[3][1] The instrument has multiple C-band operation modes, including Stripmap and ScanSAR hybrid-polarimetric data.[1][4] SAR backscatter, SAR backscatter change detection and polarimetric SAR decomposition are demonstrated through EOS-04.[1][4] EOS-04 launched in February 2022 and is recorded as an operational RISAT-programme satellite.[2][3]
