The invention relates to the technical field of marine
remote sensing observation, in particular to a squint ATI-SAR multi-view sub-aperture focusing marine
vector flow inversion method. The method comprises the following steps of observation of
strabismus ATI-SAR loads, focusing of multi-view sub-apertures, inversion of multi-view HLOS flow velocity, overdetermined equation solving of
vector flow and checking of internal and external consistency of the
vector flow. Non-side-looking observation is adopted for the load,
observability of components in the rail direction is enhanced through physical squint, and low cost of a
single beam and
system conciseness are kept; according to the method, the contribution of the
azimuth component is in direct proportion to the squint angle sine, so that the along-track component far greater than the virtual squint can be obtained, the solvability of the equation is improved, and the inversion
instability is reduced; visual and reliable information observation is achieved with small
system burden, equipment investment is saved, large-scale vector flow on-
orbit observation can be achieved, and
engineering is easy to achieve. According to the method, three-step closed-loop
processing is carried out, the
bottleneck of the traditional technology is solved, and the
engineering availability and the result robustness are broken through.
