Abstract

The invention discloses a method for MIMO (multi-input multi-output)-SAR (synthetic aperture radar) near field measurement imaging azimuth side lobe suppression. According to the method, the azimuth side lobe suppression is realized through each channel data weighing, and in order to obtain the optimized side lobe suppression effect, the optimum channel weight vector W<opt> needs to be found. The W<opt> solution process is as follows: firstly, echo data with the channel weight w is decomposed in the azimuth focusing process, and an azimuth point diffusion function expression B=Aw is obtained; secondly, the value of the ideal point diffusion function at the main lobe part is 1, the value at the side lobe part is 0, the solution of the vector w is converted into a mathematical optimization problem; finally, a mathematical optimization algorithm-convex optimization algorithm is adopted for solving to obtain the optimum channel weight vector W<opt>, and the effect is the best when the optimum channel weight value is used for azimuth side lobe suppression. The method can be used for solving uniform linear array, and can also be used for the side lobe suppression of the interstitial deletion array element linear array, and is also applicable to the side lobe suppression in linear guide rail scanning SAR imaging and the like.
