摘要
En 中文
Bistatic synthetic aperture radar (BiSAR) has high geometric diversity and can obtain the target information from different observation angles. With the ability of azimuth beam steering for both platforms, different bistatic imaging modes can be implemented to achieve better cooperation of beam footprints for enhanced imaging performance. For the multimode general bistatic SAR with complex trajectory (MGCT-BiSAR), due to the different beam steering methods and the translational-variant geometry, the spatial variance of the Doppler centroid becomes complicated, which leads to a severe azimuth spectrum aliasing problem. Moreover, the complex trajectory of MGCT-BiSAR may introduce high-order range cell migration (RCM) and Doppler parameters, which leads to the 2-D coupling and the different Doppler characteristics for different beam steering modes. The existing imaging algorithm cannot uniformly process the multimode SAR data. This article proposes an improved polar formatting algorithm based on minimum azimuth spectrum width (minASW-PFA) to uniformly process the bistatic SAR data. The proposed method first calculates the unified deramping factors and proposes a minASW bulk deramping method to minimize the azimuth spectrum width of the different imaging modes. However, the process leads to a severe range-Doppler coupling, which cannot be fully eliminated by the traditional polar formatting and wavefront curvature compensation methods. Therefore, an improved polar format mapping and wavefront curvature compensation method are also proposed to solve the coupling problem and achieve high-order spatial variance compensation. Finally, numerical simulations verify the proposed algorithm to achieve unified imaging for multimode general bistatic SAR with complex trajectories.
