Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of radar imaging, and in particular relates to a wavenumber domain imaging processing method for a high squint spotlight SAR based on sliding window data reception. Background Art

[0002] High resolution has always been a core concern in the field of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging technology. For the strip mode, its azimuth resolution is limited by the length of the synthetic aperture determined by the azimuth antenna beam width, which is usually no more than half the antenna length. In contrast, the beamforming mode controls the antenna beam pointing so that the radar beam continues to illuminate the same target area along the moving track, thereby breaking through the antenna beam width limitation, achieving a longer synthetic aperture, and obtaining higher azimuth resolution.

[0003] Among the spotlight SAR imaging algorithms, the range Doppler algorithm (RDA), polar format algorithm (PFA) and range migration algorithm (RMA) are all the current mainstream technologies. Among them, the range migration algorithm (RMA), as a frequency domain processing algorithm, transforms the signal into a two-dimensional frequency domain for processing, so it is more efficient than the time domain algorithm. At the same time, since its processing process does not introduce approximate processing, it ensures high imaging accuracy, thus having a significant advantage in imaging resolution.

[0004] In recent years, with the continuous expansion of radar detection range and the increasing demand for target dwell time, various SAR platforms tend to adopt high squint imaging technology. However, the high squint working mode brings multiple challenges in data acquisition and imaging signal processing. Especially under high squint conditions, the target range migration is significantly aggravated, resulting in more serious two-dimensional coupling of echo signals, which not only reduces the acquisition efficiency of echo data, but also greatly increases the complexity of subsequent imaging signal processing. At the data acquisition level, if the traditional fixed sampling window method is used, in order to ensure the complete acquisition of echo signals, the sampling window length needs to be greatly increased, and the collected data contains a large amount of invalid information, which is bound to lead to a significant reduction in sampling efficiency. In addition, the severe coupling of the signal also makes the derivation of the two-dimensional analytical spectrum more difficult, and the time domain coupling further leads to irregular spectrum support area, which in turn affects the efficiency of frequency domain sampling. Summary of the invention

[0005] Purpose of the invention: In view of the above problems, the present invention proposes a wavenumber domain imaging processing method for a high-squint spotlight SAR based on sliding window received data, which solves the problem of low frequency domain sampling efficiency caused by two-dimensional spectrum distortion in the high-squint mode and can simultaneously improve the processing efficiency of eliminating two-dimensional coupling in the sliding receiving window mode.

[0006] Technical solution: To achieve the purpose of the present invention, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0007] A wavenumber domain imaging processing method for high squint spotlight SAR based on sliding window received data comprises the following steps:

[0008] Step 1: Preprocess the two-dimensional time domain data received by the sliding window to obtain processed two-dimensional wavenumber domain echo data;

[0009] Step 2: Multiply the two-dimensional wavenumber domain echo with the reference function to achieve complete focusing at the reference distance;

[0010] Step 3: Use a two-dimensional fast separable interpolation method to decouple the two-dimensional coupling caused by the sliding window receiving mode to obtain a decoupled two-dimensional frequency domain echo signal;

[0011] Step 4: Use the two-dimensional inverse fast Fourier transform to convert the decoupled echo signal from the two-dimensional frequency domain to the image domain to obtain a high-resolution focused image of the target.

[0012] Further, step 1 pre-processes the two-dimensional time domain echo data received by the sliding window to obtain processed two-dimensional wave number domain echo data, including: performing range Fourier transform, range matched filtering, azimuth Fourier transform on the sliding window received data in sequence and transforming it into a wave number domain form. This is achieved through the following process:

[0013] The expression of sliding window receiving two-dimensional time domain echo data is:

[0027]

[0028] In the formula, s' slide (K x ,K r ) is the two-dimensional wavenumber domain echo signal after multiplying with the reference function.

[0029] Furthermore, in step three, a two-dimensional fast separable interpolation method is used to decouple the two-dimensional coupling caused by the sliding window receiving mode. The interpolation direction selected is interpolation along the line of sight to simplify the amount of interpolation data, specifically:

[0030] Rotate the scene coordinate system, choose to interpolate along the line of sight, and transform the echo expression into:

[0031] s s ' lide (K x,K r )=exp[-jG y (K x ,K r )·y t ']·exp[-jG x (K x ,K r )·x t '],

[0033]

[0034] The signal has two-dimensional coupling. If two-dimensional decoupling is required, the following variable replacements need to be completed:

[0035]

[0036] At the same time, in order to facilitate the subsequent steps, the above formula is reversed to obtain:
