低频UWB SAR的冲击响应函数

提取系统的冲击响应函数(impulse response function,IRF)是测量雷达系统性能指标的前提,IRF来自理想点目标的雷达图像。对于低频超宽带合成孔径雷达(ultra wide band synthetic aperture radar,UWB SAR),参考点目标的电磁散射特性是频率和方位角的函数,不满足理想点目标的散射特性要求。本文从IRF的定义出发,结合低频UWBSAR系统处理模型,利用二维数字聚焦方法消除杂波的影响,同时利用低频电磁散射数值建模的方法计算参考点目标的电磁散射特性,最后给出了计算系统IRF的方法。

针对具有方位谱混叠现象的斜视聚束式合成孔径雷达(SAR)成像问题,本文研究了一种基于去调频技术的成像方法.文中首先分析了斜视聚束SAR中的方位谱混叠现象,从理论上找出了斜视角影响方位粗聚焦的根本原因.基于分析结果,引入了回波信号非线性相位校正预处理法,彻底消除了斜视角的影响,从而得到正确的粗聚焦结果.然后基于斜视成像模型,推导了预处理回波信号的方位粗聚焦和精聚焦处理过程.在精聚焦的方位滤波处理中,针对非线性相位校正预处理导致的场景聚焦深度限制问题,提出了一种改进的非线性调频变标(NLCS)算法,实现了回波信号的高精度方位压缩.仿真实验结果证明了文中理论分析的正确性和所提方法的有效性.     

A novel STAP method for the detection of fast air moving targets from high speed platform

Space-time adaptive processing (STAP) is an effective method for detecting moving target in airborne/spaceborne radar.However,the detection of fast air moving targets from high speed platform is challenged by the range walk of both the clutter and moving targets.It is well known that keystone formatting can be used to compensate for the range walk of multiple moving targets simultaneously without using the knowledge of the motion parameters.However,in the presence of serious Doppler ambiguity of fast air moving targets,distribution of the clutter will be affected by the keystone formatting matched to the ambiguity number of targets,and as a result the STAP performance will degrade.In this paper,a novel STAP method is proposed for the detection of fast air moving targets from high speed platform,which can deal with the range walk of both clutter and targets.Effectiveness of the new method is verified via simulation examples.     

Sparse synthetic aperture radar imaging with optimized azimuthal aperture

To counter the problem of acquiring and processing huge amounts of data for synthetic aperture radar(SAR)using traditional sampling techniques,a method for sparse SAR imaging with an optimized azimuthal aperture is presented.The equivalence of an azimuthal match filter and synthetic array beamforming is shown so that optimization of the azimuthal sparse aperture can be converted to optimization of synthetic array beamforming.The azimuthal sparse aperture,which is composed of a middle aperture and symmetrical bilateral apertures,can be obtained by optimization algorithms(density weighting and simulated annealing algorithms,respectively).Furthermore,sparse imaging of spectrum analysis SAR based on the optimized sparse aperture is achieved by padding zeros at null samplings and using a non-uniform Taylor window.Compared with traditional sampling,this method has the advantages of reducing the amount of sampling and alleviating the computational burden with acceptable image quality.Unlike periodic sparse sampling,the proposed method exhibits no image ghosts.The results obtained from airborne measurements demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method.
