Motion error compensation algorithm based on unmanned aerial vehicle bistatic SAR system

Abstract

The invention provides a motion error compensation method based on an unmanned aerial vehicle-mounted bistatic SAR system. The difficulty of motion compensation is reduced by constructing a motion sensitivity model of a small unmanned aerial vehicle BiSAR system and reducing the degree of freedom of errors. Firstly, sub-image division is carried out on a coarse imaging result, meanwhile, a motion sensitivity model of a small unmanned aerial vehicle bistatic synthetic aperture radar system is established, the second-order frequency modulation rate and the third-order frequency modulation rate of azimuth time domain signals are expressed as the linear sum of several error degrees of freedom, and the error degree of freedom is screened by using the model. Then, error estimation values of the motion parameters are obtained through a simulated annealing algorithm and a weighted least square method, and finally, global motion compensation is achieved through the values. The motion compensation difficulty is reduced by reducing the degree of freedom of error, and global motion compensation is realized. The method is suitable for an imaging environment with relatively few sparse scene strong contrast areas, and the problem that a traditional motion error compensation algorithm is not applicable when the motion error of a transceiver has large space-variant characteristics in a small unmanned aerial vehicle BiSAR system is solved.

Description

technical field

[0001] The disclosure belongs to the technical field of bistatic synthetic aperture radar, and in particular relates to a motion error compensation algorithm based on a UAV-borne bistatic SAR system. Background technique

[0002] Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Bistatic Synthetic Aperture Radar (UAV-BiSAR, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Bistatic Synthetic Aperture Radar) is widely used in disaster search, land surveying and mapping, military monitoring and other fields because it can provide images that are not affected by weather conditions day and night. . However, under the bistatic condition, the spatial variability of the motion error of the small UAV system is greater than that of the traditional SAR system, and the motion errors in the range and azimuth directions are severely coupled, which greatly reduces the accuracy of error estimation. Therefore, the traditional motion error compensation (MOCO, Motion Compensation) algorithm combined with space variation is no ...
