Therefore, the high-orbit synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system plays an important role in target imaging and observation. With the development of high-resolution space-borne SAR, orbit error has become a decisive factor restricting the improvement of the resolution of space-borne SAR. As an important error source, the orbit error can affect the imaging results of the SAR and is one of the main limiting factors affecting the image quality. In order to eliminate the orbit error, a plurality of methods have been developed.

[0003] The main way to eliminate the orbit error at present is the precise orbit determination technology. The precise orbit determination technology establishes a precise orbit determination error model based on the satellite body structure, and is usually used when the satellite orbit data recorded by the GPS system is obtained for compensation. However, because the high-orbit SAR satellite is located outside the GPS positioning system, the use of satellite data of the positioning system will cause a large position error; because the precise orbit determination technology is to simulate the scene by using the data obtained by the GPS positioning system and then perform imaging, some errors will also be caused in the process of simulation modeling. This results in that the imaging quality precision of the precise orbit determination technology is not high and cannot meet the imaging requirements. SUMMARY

[0033] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments, but the implementation of the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0034] The orbital error estimation and updated imaging based on autofocus of high-orbit SAR images provided in this embodiment of the invention can be applied to electronic devices such as mobile terminals, personal laptops, and supercomputers. This embodiment of the invention does not impose any restrictions on the specific type of electronic device.

[0035] Figure 1 The diagram shown illustrates a method for orbit error estimation and image update based on autofocusing of high-orbit SAR images, provided by an embodiment of the present invention. As an example and not a limitation, method 100 can be applied to the aforementioned electronic device. Method 100 may include steps S101-S106, which are described below.

[0036] S101, the synthetic aperture radar SAR echo data is divided according to sub-aperture to obtain multiple sub-aperture echo data.

[0037] In one possible implementation, the SAR echo data can first be pulse-compressed to obtain pulse-compressed SAR echo data. Then, the pulse-compressed SAR echo data can be divided according to sub-apertures to obtain pulse-compressed sub-aperture SAR echo data. Finally, the sub-aperture echo data can be obtained by dot product of the pulse-compressed sub-aperture SAR echo data and a window function.

[0038] In one example, range pulse compression can be used to pulse compress SAR echo data.

[0039] Specifically, the pulse-compressed SAR echo data containing L pulses of the full aperture can be divided into N sub-apertures to obtain the pulse-compressed sub-aperture SAR echo data ss(t). r This reduces coherent processing time. Then it is combined with the window function rect. n (l) Dot product yields sub-aperture echo data ss n (tr l).

[0040] For example, when n·l0≤l≤n·l0+L a -1, the window function rect n (l) takes value 1, and 0 in other ranges. Wherein, l0 represents the sub-aperture spacing, L a represents the length of the sub-aperture, and l represents the L i (i=1,2,…,L)th pulse.

[0041] S102, image each range sub-scene according to the sub-aperture echo data to obtain a range sub-scene image.

[0042] In an example, the whole imaging scene to be observed can be divided into K i (i=1,2,…,K) range sub-scenes, and then each range sub-scene is imaged according to all the sub-aperture echo data in the range sub-scene to obtain a range sub-scene image.

[0043] For example, the imaging scene to be observed can be evenly divided into range sub-scenes.

[0044] S103, determine the full-aperture phase error of each range sub-scene according to the range sub-scene image.

[0045] In a possible implementation, the maximum contrast phase error of the n th sub-aperture in the k th range sub-scene can be calculated using the maximum contrast autofocusing method according to the range sub-scene image. All the maximum contrast phase errors of the k th range sub-scene are spliced, and the gradient of each maximum contrast phase error is calculated according to the spliced maximum contrast phase error. The linear component is calculated according to the error gradient of the pulses overlapping between adjacent two sub-apertures. Finally, the full-aperture phase error of the k th range sub-scene can be obtained by coherently combining the maximum contrast phase errors according to the linear component.

[0046] For example, the number of pulses overlapping between adjacent two sub-apertures is L a -l0.

[0047] For example, the full-aperture phase error of each range sub-scene can be represented by a full-aperture phase error matrix. The k th column vector in the full-aperture phase error matrix can be the full-aperture phase error of the k th range sub-scene.

[0048] That is: ψ e (t a )=[Ψ1(t a ,T1),Ψ2(t a ,T2),…,Ψ K (t aT K )];

[0049] wherein T k is the scene center point coordinate of the kth range sub-scene, t a is the azimuth time, ψ e (t a ) is the full-aperture phase error matrix, Ψ k (t a , T k ) is the full-aperture phase error of the kth range sub-scene.

[0050] Specifically, referring to Figure 2 , the maximum contrast phase error matrix at each sub-aperture time of each sub-scene can be determined by starting from the first range sub-scene and the first sub-aperture data, and then traversing the sub-aperture echo data of the same range sub-scene first, and then traversing the next range sub-scene.

[0051] Exemplarily, the nth column vector of the maximum contrast phase difference matrix of the kth range sub-scene is the maximum contrast phase error of the nth sub-aperture of the kth range sub-scene.

[0052] That is:

[0053] wherein ψ k (n) is the maximum contrast phase difference matrix of the kth range sub-scene, is the maximum contrast phase error of the nth sub-aperture of the kth range sub-scene.

[0054] In one example, the maximum contrast phase error can satisfy the following formula:

[0055]

[0056] wherein ψ is the maximum contrast phase error, I max is the brightness value of the brightest pixel in the range sub-scene image, and I min is the brightness value of the darkest pixel in the range sub-scene image.

[0057] Optionally, the full-aperture phase errors of multiple range sub-scenes can be calculated in parallel to reduce processing time and improve efficiency.

[0058] S104, according to the full-aperture phase error, the three-dimensional error of the orbit is inversed.

[0059] In one example, the three-dimensional error of the orbit can be calculated by using the least square method.

[0060] Exemplarily, the three-dimensional error of the orbit can satisfy the following formula:

[0061]

[0062] wherein t a is the azimuth time, E() is the three-dimensional error of the orbit, p() is the instantaneous unit vector from the antenna phase center to the center of all the range sub-scene at each azimuth time, and λ is the wavelength.

[0063] For example, p(t a ) is composed of p(t a , T k ), and p(t a , T k ) represents the instantaneous unit vector from the antenna phase center to the center of the kth range sub-scene.

[0064] S105, updating the orbit data according to the three-dimensional error to obtain updated orbit data.

[0065] In one example, the updated orbit data can be obtained by subtracting the three-dimensional error of the orbit from the current orbit data.

[0066] For example, the updated orbit data can satisfy the following formula:

[0067] S(t a ) = s(t a ) - E(t a )

[0068] wherein S(t a ) is the updated orbit data, and s(t a ) is the current orbit data.

[0069] S106, imaging according to the updated orbit data to obtain a detection image.

[0070] For example, imaging according to the updated orbit data can obtain a detection image of the imaging scene to be observed.

[0071] According to the method provided by the application, the error of the orbit is directly calculated from the SAR echo data, instead of from the GPS data, so that the position error caused by the GPS monitoring satellite data can be avoided; the scene is directly imaged from the sub-aperture echo data, instead of modeling and then simulating the imaging, so that the precision loss in the simulation process can be avoided; and thus the orbit precision and the imaging precision are improved.

[0079] In a possible implementation, the full-aperture phase error estimation module 320 can be specifically configured to calculate a maximum contrast phase error of an nth sub-aperture in a kth distance sub-scene by using a maximum contrast autofocusing method according to a sub-scene image, splice N maximum contrast phase errors of the kth distance sub-scene, and calculate a gradient of each maximum contrast phase error, wherein N is a total number of sub-apertures, and determine a linear component according to a gradient of a maximum contrast phase error of an overlapping pulse of adjacent two sub-apertures, and perform coherent combination on the maximum contrast phase error according to the linear component to obtain a full-aperture phase error of the kth distance sub-scene.

[0080] In a possible implementation, the orbit three-dimensional error inversion module 330 can be specifically configured to invert a three-dimensional error of an orbit by using a least square method according to the full-aperture phase error of each distance sub-scene.

[0081] In a possible implementation, the three-dimensional error of the orbit can satisfy the following formula:

[0084] In a possible implementation, the orbit updating module 340 can be specifically configured to subtract the three-dimensional error compensation from the orbit data to obtain updated orbit data.

[0085] In a possible implementation, the range sub-scenarios can be obtained by uniformly and equidistantly dividing the imaging scene to be observed.

[0086] According to the method provided in the application, the error of the orbit is directly calculated from the SAR echo data instead of the GPS data, so that the position error caused by the GPS monitoring satellite data can be avoided; the scene is directly imaged from the sub-aperture echo data instead of modeling and then simulating the imaging, so that the precision loss in the simulation process can be avoided; and thus the orbit precision and the imaging precision can be improved.
