Aperture Synthesis

Aperture Synthesis is a computational imaging technique in observational astronomy and electromagnetic sensing that belongs to the class of interferometric methods, distinguished by its synthesis of a large effective aperture through the coherent combination of signals from multiple spatially separated smaller antennas or sub-apertures, thereby achieving high angular resolution equivalent to that of a single aperture of comparable size.
