The analysis of the dependence of the tangential resolution of the radar with synthetic aperture (RSA) on the oriented curvature of the spatial trajectory of its movement allows us to identify additional factors affecting the quality of the surface control. Taking into account these factors makes it possible to increase the tangential resolution when processing the results of observations of the radar due to rational variation of the characteristics of the radar movement.

The purpose of the article is to study the possibility of improving the quality of the functioning of the RSA due to the variation of the characteristics of the spatial trajectory of its movement.

The analysis of the influence of the curvature of the trajectory of the RSA carrier on the tangential resolution of the radar with a synthesized opening showed that in the synthesis of the antenna aperture, it is possible to improve the quality of the radar measurements due to the variation of the spatial trajectory of its movement.

Practical significance is in increasing of the tangential resolution of the RSA due to rational variation of the characteristics of its spatial trajectory.
