Embodiment 1

[0042] In an embodiment of the present invention, the method described in the present invention uses the data provided by a certain experimental ISAR system in my country to process, figure 2 An aircraft target model is shown as the object of calibration in this embodiment. In the experimental ISAR system, the radar carrier frequency is 5.52GHz; the chirp signal is transmitted with a bandwidth of 400MHz; the pulse compression signal is obtained by Dechirp mode, and the quadrature I / Q dual-channel sampling is performed, and the sampling frequency is 10MHz; the equivalent pulse repetition The frequency is 200Hz; 1024 pulses are obtained for processing.

[0043] During the acquisition process of a batch of target image data, the rotation vector of the radar relative to the target remains approximately constant, that is, the rotation center, rotation direction and rotation speed remain unchanged. According to the basic principle of radar imaging, range-Doppler imaging is perform...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for estimating target rotation of an inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) based on time-space image sequence, which comprises the following steps: acquiring a time-dimensional RD image sequence of the ISAR according to the received echo data; and analyzing and estimating the rotation of a target by tracking attitude change between images caused by the rotation of the target; judging whether the rotation planes of the target in any two RD images are coplanar according to a time-space two-dimensional image sequence acquired by a single receiver or a plurality of receivers; when the rotation planes are coplanar, further improving the estimation precision of a rotation parameter through a dominant point method or a rotation related method; moreover, realizing large-angle high-resolution imaging by PFA or CBP algorithm; and when the rotation planes are non-coplanar, estimating the azimuth and pitching rotation information of the target so as to realize three-dimensional imaging of the target. The method ensures the target rotation estimation precision and stability, and meanwhile can improve the performance of the ISAR imaging in the three aspects of transverse calibration, large-angle high-resolution imaging and three-dimensional imaging. Moreover, compared with the conventional target rotation estimation method, the method has high precision, and is easy in engineering realization.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of radar, and more specifically, the present invention relates to a method for estimating rotation of an inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) target based on time-space image sequence analysis. Background technique [0002] Inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) is a microwave imaging technology that can provide two-dimensional images of non-cooperative moving targets (such as aircraft and ships), and enhance the performance of subsequent target recognition, estimation, tracking and precision strikes. The basic principle of ISAR imaging is as follows: the high resolution of the target along the radar line of sight direction (oblique range direction) is obtained by transmitting broadband signals, and the lateral resolution of the target is obtained by coherently accumulating the relative viewing angle changes between the radar and the target; High, ISAR can obtain higher resolution with a small ta...
