Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of high-dimensional synthetic aperture radar imaging data processing, and in particular relates to a sparse array tomographic SAR three-dimensional reconstruction method and system based on SVD-DCS. Background Art

[0002] Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is an all-day, all-weather, active microwave imaging radar with a certain degree of surface penetration. Developed based on SAR, tomoSAR is a new technology for time-efficient, true stereoscopic, and high-precision 3D reconstruction. It has broad application prospects in areas such as urban 3D construction, field exploration and rescue, environmental reconnaissance in non-cooperative areas, and forest biomass and ice reserve estimation. TomoSAR achieves third-dimensional resolution by adding multiple antennas or performing multiple passes in the normal direction of the azimuth-slant range plane and performing a third-dimensional elevation synthetic aperture, enabling the recovery of information from overlapping areas. With the development of new-generation spaceborne SAR constellations, several satellites are now able to acquire multiple high-resolution SAR images of the same area within a relatively short time interval, providing reliable data support for tomoSAR 3D reconstruction.

[0003] However, when tomographic SAR uses a third-dimensional synthetic aperture along the normal to the azimuth-slant-range plane, multiple flybys or multi-antenna sampling creates an uneven, sparse array. Traditional spectral analysis methods such as DFT, BF, and Capon require uniform elevation signal sampling and a sampling frequency that satisfies the Nyquist sampling theorem for elevation inversion in the overlaid region, resulting in tomographic resolution unable to surpass the limitations of Rayleigh resolution. De-overlapping methods such as MUSIC and singular value decomposition (SVD) can surpass Rayleigh resolution in elevation, but at the expense of spatial resolution. Although tomographic SAR systems have elevation resolution, the limited number of antennas results in a relatively short synthetic aperture in elevation, resulting in elevation resolution far less than both azimuth and slant-range resolution. To achieve third-dimensional super-resolution imaging under conditions of sparse and irregular baseline distribution, the SL1MMER method, based on compressed sensing (CS), has emerged. This method exploits the sparse nature of the target signal structure and performs non-correlated measurements on low-dimensional, low-resolution, sub-Nyquist-sampled data to achieve accurate signal reconstruction. However, when there are few and unevenly distributed baselines, the SL1MMER method struggles to suppress third-dimensional sidelobe noise, leading to the introduction of a large number of false targets.

[0004] As an extension of CS theory, in 2005, Baron et al. proposed distributed compressed sensing (DCS) to address the joint sparsity of multiple signals. Based on the information theory principle that the joint entropy of two sources is less than the sum of their individual entropies, DCS defines the concept of joint sparsity to fully exploit the correlations between multiple signals and perform joint CS. Its performance is superior to that of individual CS signals, thereby reducing the system's sampling rate requirements. Given DCS's superiority over CS, research on DCS-based 3D reconstruction methods for tomographic SAR is crucial for reducing system requirements and improving the timeliness of 3D reconstruction.
