Problems solved by technology

In practice, due to the limitation of weight and power consumption, the SAR system only has the capability of simultaneous one-dimensional scanning. In this case, the conventional TOPS mode cannot be realized.
In addition, although the conventional TOPS mode has the ability of wide coverage in the distance direction, it does not have the ability to repeatedly observe the same area

Abstract

The invention discloses an imaging method and device of an SAR. The method comprises that scanning parameters, including the maximal scanning angle and a scanning period at least, of azimuth wave beam scanning of the SAR is determined; the SAR is controlled to carry out present azimuth wave beam scanning from a preset start moment by taking the maximal scanning angle as an initial scanning angle and the scanning period as a time length; after the present azimuth wave beam scanning, the SAR is controlled to carry out next azimuth wave beam scanning till a preset end moment by taking the maximal scanning angle as an initial scanning angle and the scanning period as a time length; and echo data obtained by as azimuth wave beam scanning between the start moment and the end moment is used to carry out SAR imaging.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of radar technology, in particular to a synthetic aperture radar imaging method and device. Background technique [0002] Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is a microwave imaging radar that can be installed on aircraft, satellites, spacecraft and other flying platforms to observe the ground all day and all weather, and has certain surface penetration capabilities. .
