The invention discloses a time-varying narrow-band interference suppression method based on complex empirical mode decomposition, which includes the following steps, (1), obtaining SAR return wave; (2), judging that whether time-varying narrow-band interference exists; (3), performing the complex empirical mode decomposition; (4), obtaining the range pulse pressure and performing the range walk correction, (5), performing parameter estimation; (6), performing motion compensation; (7), obtaining the orientation pulse pressure; and (8), performing multi-look processing. The narrow-band interference suppression method provided by the invention is suitable for range and orientation two-dimensional time-varying NBI, makes full use of the complex empirical mode decomposition method, sets the threshold suppression strong interference component, has better strong interference suppression ability, retains signals to the utmost extent, and has clearer SAR imaging.
