Meeting the increased complicating of the problem of surfaces remote sensing with the synthesis aperture radar (SAR) use, requiring of more high level of resolution and accuracy and also of performing of the multiparametric measurings, the necessity of the multichannel SAR construction appears, which could receive signals in the different frequency bands, on the different types of polarization, from the different directions etc. In the proposed manuscript the algorithms of such combined processing are examined. These algorithms were synthesized by the solving of the optimization problems. They include the classic operations of the aperture synthesis and operations of the adaptive signal whitening, operations of the Earth covers parameters and statistical characteristics calculating as well.
