Uncompensated phase errors present in synthetic-aperture-radar data can have a disastrous effect on reconstructed image quality. A new iterative algorithm is presented that holds promise of being a robust estimator and corrector for arbitrary phase errors. The algorithm is similar in many respects to speckle processing methods currently used in optical astronomy. Its ability to focus scenes containing large amounts of phase error regardless of the phase-error structure or its source is demonstrated. The algorithm works extremely well in both high and low signal-to-clutter conditions without human intervention.
