PDHT & Crypto

According to the Sentinel-1 requirements and proposed work plan, different conceptsand configurations will be traded-off for the PDHT.

Two reference configurations have been so far identified :

Configuration A : PDHT with polarization reuse; Configuration B : PDHT with frequency reuse;

It can be presumed that the final solution will lie within the range of possible solutionsidentified by these two concepts.

For these reasons, the reference configurations hereafter and all the equipmentcharacteristics currently defined shall be understood as provisional.
