Problems solved by technology

Due to the serial distribution of data, the size of the pipeline is easily limited by the amount of data transferred
The traditional delay summation algorithm forms a virtual aperture by accumulating raw echo data. The data transmission volume between each processing unit is relatively large, and the data transmission takes a long time. Requirements for Rapid Real-time Imaging with Synthetic Aperture Sonar

Abstract

The invention provides a rapid real-time imaging method for synthetic aperture sonar. According to the method, accurate propagation delay of sound waves from pixels to space sampling points is obtained according to kinematic error table look-up, and counter-propagation results of array element single sampling point echo data and process images are used for coherence stack for aperture synthesis. The method has the advantages of being accurate in imaging, small in calculation amount and capable of achieving echo data zero inventory, facilitating large-scale pipeline processing and achieving remote and large-scene high-resolution rapid real-time imaging of the seabed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of synthetic aperture sonar in underwater acoustic engineering, in particular to an imaging method of synthetic aperture sonar. Background technique [0002] Synthetic aperture sonar is a marine high-tech in the 21st century. It uses the linear motion of the small-aperture array to virtualize a large-aperture array, thereby obtaining high-resolution detection capabilities that are independent of signal frequency and operating distance. It is widely used in the marine military field. Applied to mine detection, waterway mapping and intelligence reconnaissance. The form of modern naval warfare is accelerating towards informatization and digitalization, and fighter jets are fleeting. Therefore, synthetic aperture sonar must have the ability of long-distance, large-scene, and high-resolution fast real-time imaging. [0003] In the field of synthetic aperture sonar, delay summation is a theoretical optimal algori...
