Herein we present a super resolution and electromagnetic interference suppression technique based on Maximum Entropy Method and applied to data acquired by the SHAllow RADar (SHARAD) on board the NASA's 2005 Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) mission, currently operating on Mars. We show that the proposed algorithm allows to enhance signal-to-noise ratio by several decibels and the range resolution over a factor of three. Subsurface imaging is improved remarkably, allowing additional insights for the scientific community in the interpretation of the SHARAD radar data.
