摘要
In One-Stationary Bistatic Synthetic Aperture Radar (OS-BiSAR) imaging, imprecise description of 2-D range-azimuth space-variant property usually leads to deterioration of final SAR image rapidly. In order to solve this issue, a new ellipse model is proposed to precisely describe range-azimuth space-variant property of OS-BiSAR with large baseline, and an improved Non-Linear Chirp Scaling (NLCS) algorithm is also derived based on this model. First, a phase de-ramp operation is performed to remove the linear Range Cell Migration (RCM) and Doppler centroid in range frequency domain. Then, the residual RCM and high order range-azimuth coupling terms are removed. Thirdly, a new ellipse model is established to describe range-azimuth space-variant property of OS-BiSAR, and then the azimuth frequency modulation rate of space-variant echo is analyzed. Moreover, azimuth scaling function of NLCS and azimuth compression factors are re-derived. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed model not only reveals the property of 2-D azimuth-variant in OS-BiSAR, but also provides a precise analytical expression to depict the 2-D range-azimuth space-variant property of OS-BiSAR. Furthermore, simulation results validate that the improved NLCS algorithm based on this new model has high imaging performance. © 2016, Science Press. All right reserved.
