A DRONE-BORNE TRI-BAND RADAR: RESULTS AND APPLICATIONS
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) has become a powerful remote sensing tool during the last 25 years. Most relevant products are three dimensional and projected on a cartographic system: topographic, thematic and change detection maps. Starting with the requirements of precision agriculture, subsurface tomography, subsidence and cartography a low weight drone-borne SAR was designed. It operates in P, L and C-bands with cross-track (InSAR) and differential Interferometry (DInSAR). The requirements of the foreseen applications, concept, design, results and validation from regular surveys and ground truths are presented.

A Drone-borne Tri-Band RADAR: Results and Applications
Biography:
Hugo Enrique Hernandez Figueroa completed his PhD from Imperial College London (1992) and carried out postdoctoral activities at University College London (1993-1995). He is a full professor at UNICAMP (2005), Brazil, head of the Applied and Computational Electromagnetics Lab (LEMAC), and the director of the Brazilian Science and Technology Lab for Photonics Communications (FOTONICOM).
He is an OPTICA (formerly OSA) Fellow, and a senior member of IEEE and SPIE. His work is focused on the R&D of photonic and microwave devices applied to telecommunications and biotechnology. He has published more than 145 papers in reputed journals and serving as an editorial board member of Journal of IEEE/OPTICA Lightwave and Technology, IEEE Photonics Journal, and IEEE Journal of Selected Topics on Quantum Electronics.
He has also served as general chair of a number of international conferences and has delivered almost one hundred invited talks worldwide. More recent invitations: Invited Speaker at IEEE/GRSS International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 17-22 July 2022, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (IGARSS 2022), and Keynote Speaker at the MRW 2022 (10th MICROWAVE & RADAR WEEK), 12-14 September 2022 Gdansk, Poland. Presently he serves as a member of the IEEE Photonics Society Publications Council (2022-2024).
