Problems solved by technology

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging depends on the observation model of the observation process. Due to the model error introduced by the motion error, there will be a certain phase error in the echo data, which will defocus the reconstructed image.
After the image is defocused, it will seriously affect the quality of reconstruction, and there will be false targets and high side lobes

Abstract

The invention discloses a weighting sparse-driven self-focusing SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) imaging method. The method comprises the steps as follows: establishing a linear observing model of echo data and an observing scene to construct the optimized target function; adopting the weighted L1 norm; and then carrying out an L1 norm approximating method to approximate the L1 norm in the target function; iterating and solving the optimized target function; and estimating the phase error of the linear observing model, and modifying the linear observing model to obtain a more accurate observing model, thus achieving the focusing of the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image. Compared with the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image reconstructed via a traditional focusing method (such as PGA (Programmable Gain Amplifier) and a sparse-driven auto-focusing (SDA), the synthetic aperture radar image obtained via the method provided by the invention is lower in sidelobe, and has a better effect on focusing.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of radar imaging technology, and particularly relates to the field of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging technology. Background technique [0002] Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is a high-resolution microwave imaging system that relies on the relative motion between the radar and the target to form a synthetic array to obtain horizontal high resolution, and uses large bandwidth signals to achieve vertical high resolution. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging relies on the observation model of the observation process, and the model error introduced by the motion error will cause a certain phase error in the echo data, and then defocus the reconstructed image. After the image is defocused, it will seriously affect the quality of reconstruction, and false targets and high sidelobes will appear. In order to solve the problem of image defocus, a self-focusing method was created. One of the more well-known autofocus meth...
