treated as independent modes and then coupled using the forcing provided by the incoming wave and its direction. The roll and pitch periods for a vessel can be estimated using empirical equations that base upon the vessel dimensions. Then, using wind vector parameters passed to the simulation [5], a significant wave height and period can be determined using a sea spectrum formulation [6].
With the sea and vessel dynamics characterized, a novel 6-degree of freedom kinematic propagator facilitates solution of the kinematic state of the RHIB centre of gravity (CoG) for a set of discrete time steps during the SAR image acquisition. This propagator resolves the RHIB-wave encounter frequency, the amplitudes of the 6 elementary motions and then scales these amplitudes to the RHIB using a Lorentzian function based on the modal natural frequencies. The wave elevation discrepancy between hull and CoG is solved using a 2D intersection model utilising the waterline outline and injects an additional phase offset into the final motion.
The resultant amplitude of the CoG motion can be solved as function of the maximum amplitude, the encounter frequency (ωe) and the wave elevation phase offset (ε), for a set of time steps corresponding to the pulse repetition frequency of the SBR during the acquisition
( ) = cos ( ) + . (1) A geometry engine provided by Satellite Tool Kit (STK)
allows solution of the scattering elements motion relative to the CoG using the element position parameters. Higher order kinematic terms (velocity and acceleration) are generated utilising a 3rd order Hermite polynomial interpolation scheme. Once the kinematics are generated, the motion of each scattering element is projected into the SBR coordinates.
III. SIGNAL MODEL
For a monostatic SAR in X-Band working in stripmap mode, the signal captured by the antenna can be expressed using the vector notation [13-14]
= ( ) + ( ) + , ∈ (2) as the addition of target signal ( ), sea clutter ( ) and noise ; where and are the moving target and clutter parameter vectors respectively (range, velocities and accelerations) and M is the number of channels.
A. Moving Target
Let us first consider a point target with uniform accelerated rectilinear motion in the slant range-azimuth plane. Assuming a flat Earth geometry with the platform moving at with respect to ground, the range history equation during the observation time can be written as

being η the azimuth time, R0 the slant range at η=0, v the target velocity, a the target acceleration, and the subscripts az and sr refer to azimuth and slant range components, respectively. The right-hand part of equation (3) corresponds to a second order Taylor series expansion around η=0. The acquired low-pass equivalent range compressed signal in time domain with a zero-squint angle acquisition can be expressed as follows:

with τ representing the range time (or fast time), pr the range compressed pulse envelope (i.e: a sinc-like function) and wa the antenna weighting function (i.e: squared azimuth pattern). The second exponential term in (4) represents a shift in the Doppler spectrum of the target due to the across-track velocity component [7], which results into an azimuth displacement in the SAR image. In the case of high radial velocities the target spectrum can either fall out of the Doppler processing band or re-enter in the back-folded spectrum as an ambiguity. Furthermore they produce a high range walk not compensated by the azimuthal filters which, for high speed values, can impact in the slant range resolution. The third exponential term in (4) represents the Doppler frequency rate (ka), exploited for the azimuth compression [8]. As can be seen, the Doppler rate is mainly affected by vaz and asr [7,9], producing a mismatch with the stationary world matched filter (SWMF). Therefore, the Doppler rate error can be defined as the Doppler frequency rate difference between the moving and a static target resulting in azimuth defocusing [7]:

B. Clutter and noise
The undesirable captured components are the background sea scattering ( ) and the thermal noise . In the simulation the sea clutter is modeled as a zero mean complex Gaussian process, c(ϑc)∈C~N(0, σ , ), where represents the correlation matrix between channels. The clutter power has been obtained using the model presented in [10], which provides the normalized RCS σ as a function of the frequency, polarization, incidence angle and sea state. Assuming this value equal for all the channels the clutter power σ is then proportional to the area of the resolution

VI. CONCLUSIONS
In this paper the radar scattering and kinematics for a small and fast boat sailing with a strong breeze has been modelled, considering realistic accelerations. To increase the SCNR and SAR detection performance a MFB has been included before the MTI processing stage. This architecture combined with the proposed SAR-GMTI mission [13] has been shown to be able to detect a RHIB experiencing moderate accelerations with three different heading directions.
When the high acceleration spike in slant range is encountered within the radar observation time, the proposed processing chain is not able to detect the vessels. For the simulated scenario, the three analyzed vessels experienced different peak acceleration periods due to differences in their kinematics and headings with respect to wind direction. Assuming a uniformly distributed random location of the time observation window with respect to each vessel acceleration profile in Fig. 5 the probability of observing the target free of acceleration peaks can be obtained. Averaging the 3 considered cases the probability of observing the fast boats in the simulated sea state without the acceleration peak is estimated to be 43%. To overcome this limitation, higher order terms could be considered in the range history in equation (3), to model and compensate the high target dynamics. However this would result into a higher number of degrees of freedom and larger number of filters in the MFB.
