Abstract

In the realm of space exploration, two pioneering missions within the ASI ALCOR Program are making significant strides. SATURN is a demonstration mission of a mini-swarm of 3 CubeSats in close formation on a Low Earth Dawn-Dusk Sun Synchronous Orbit, incorporating Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) technology for Earth Observation. CubeSats are equipped with Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), employing cooperative active sensors for enhanced performance. RODiO involves a cluster of four passive CubeSats flying in formation with ASI's PLATiNO-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) mission. RODiO showcases Distributed Synthetic Aperture Radar (DSAR) technology, utilizing multi-platform image synthesis to enhance radar imagery quality.
