Abstract

The invention discloses a high-resolution imaging method for an earth synchronous orbit synthetic aperture radar satellite. The method comprises the following steps of: 1, dividing a sub-aperture; 2, performing range compression on the sub-aperture data; 3, performing range interpolation on the sub-aperture data; 4, dividing a ground grid; 5, determining a range migration curve; 6, performing azimuth compression processing; and 7, superposing sub-aperture images to obtain the final image. By the imaging method provided by the invention, high-resolution imaging can be realized by processing the full-aperture echo data of the earth synchronous orbit synthetic aperture radar satellite, multi-point target imaging can be realized, namely azimuth compression can be performed on different range migration curves of different range and azimuth targets, and imaging in a wide-area scene range can be realized and the method has the characteristic of free imaging area, namely imaging can be performed on scenes at different positions as required.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a high-resolution imaging method for a geosynchronous orbit (GEO) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite, and belongs to the technical field of signal processing. Background technique [0002] Spaceborne synthetic aperture radar has all-weather and all-weather working capabilities, and it is an earth observation system that has attracted much attention at present. In remote sensing applications, repeated observation cycle is a very important technical indicator. Fields such as terrain dynamic monitoring and understanding of surface phenomena require continuous observation or frequent revisiting. Experiments show that for soil moisture detection, the observation system with 1-day revisit time can obtain 55% valid information, while the system with 35-day revisit time can only obtain 20% valid information. However, the existing SAR satellites are all operating in low orbits and have a long repetition period, which makes it di...
