Abstract

The invention relates to a step frequency inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) imaging method based on coherent processing. The method mainly solves the problems in a traditional parameter estimation method of being low in calculating efficiency and having large effects of phase error on frequency synthesis after envelope compensation. The method includes the steps: building a step frequency ISAR echo signal model; conducting motion parameter estimation according to the echo signal model; constructing a penalty function and compensating a sub-pulse envelope of echo signals; conducting frequency synthesis based on coherent processing on the compensated echo signals; conducting inverse fast Fourier transformation (IFFT) on the synthesized echo signals, and obtaining a high-resolution range profile; and conducting direction imaging through an RD algorithm or an RID algorithm to obtain a directional high-resolution image. Experiments prove that the method has the advantages of being high in phase error compensation precision and calculation efficiency and can be used for achieving two-dimensional high-resolution ISAR imaging of a target.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of radar technology, in particular to an inverse synthetic aperture radar high-resolution imaging technology, which can be used to realize high-resolution two-dimensional imaging of targets. Background technique [0002] High-resolution ISAR imaging radar is widely used in modern radar systems because it can realize two-dimensional imaging of targets, obtain richer target scattering information, and facilitate target identification and classification. High-resolution ISAR imaging of targets requires increased vertical and lateral resolution of the radar. Lateral resolution is achieved by the rotation of the target relative to the radar, while vertical resolution is achieved by the large signal bandwidth emitted by the radar. [0003] The chirp signal is widely used in high-resolution imaging radar systems because it can synthesize large signal bandwidth and improve the longitudinal resolution of radar. There are gen...
