Abstract

The invention discloses a near space low-speed platform SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) imaging method, which specifically comprises the following steps: acquiring target echo; rearranging data; performing pulse compression in range dimension; performing variable-aperture back projection imaging; and performing data splicing and outputting an imaging result. The solution of the invention is that a wide view field and common aperture working mode is adopted, and large-scene imaging is realized on the basis of a gradient aperture back projection method; the space-variant problem of range migration is solved by using the back projection method; a gradient aperture is used in the azimuth direction, so that the space-variant and image distortion problems caused by different resolutions in the azimuth direction of an image in case of different view angles are solved; and finally near space low-speed platform SAR large-scene imaging is realized.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of radar, and in particular relates to a slow platform SAR imaging method in near space in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging. Background technique

[0002] Synthetic aperture radar is an all-weather, all-weather modern high-resolution microwave remote sensing imaging radar, which uses the relative motion between the radar antenna and the target area to obtain high spatial resolution. Synthetic aperture radar has played an increasingly important role in military reconnaissance, topographic mapping, vegetation analysis, ocean and hydrological observation, environmental and disaster monitoring, resource exploration, and detection of crustal changes.

[0003] However, traditional airborne SAR has problems such as short time in the air, poor stealth performance, and susceptibility to ground attacks; while spaceborne SAR cannot continuously image a certain area, has poor flexibility, and cannot monitor and be...
