Abstract

The present invention discloses a high-seed super-resolution MIMO (multi input multi output) array imaging method. The method includes the following steps that: step 1, data sampling is performed on an MIMO array; step 2, an MIMO-RMA (range migration algorithm) is utilized to complete three-dimensional reflectivity image reconstruction; step 3, the acceleration of the MIMO-RMA is utilized to calculate a coherence factor; and step 4, the coherence factor corrects a reflectivity three-dimensional image. According to the imaging algorithm of the invention, reflectivity incoherent power is simplified by rearranging echo data, the acceleration of the MIMO-RMA is utilized to calculate the coherence factor, and the calculation speed of the coherence factor is greatly increased in combination with a parallel algorithm; super-resolution performance is balanced through controlling parameters alpha and beta according to a defect that the coherent factor suppresses weak scattering points, and at the same time, the stability of the algorithm is not affected; and the coherence factor is utilized to correct the reconstructed three-dimensional image, so that sidelobe and ground noises can be effectively suppressed, and higher resolution can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a synthetic aperture imaging algorithm, in particular to a high-speed super-resolution MIMO array imaging method. Background technique [0002] Multiple-input multiple-output (Multi Input Multi Output, MIMO) array is an array imaging solution with broad development prospects. Using diversity technology, the number of antennas and channels is greatly reduced, and the resolution performance of the system is maintained. The synthetic aperture (Synthetic Aperture, SA) imaging algorithm can be applied to the MIMO array imaging system. The characteristic of this technology is based on the pulse compression technology. Preferred method for imaging systems. SA adopts a Born-approximated electric field signal model, and does not consider any far-field approximation in order to ensure the accuracy of the image. The two most classic SA imaging methods for MIMO array imaging are backprojection algorithm (BPA) and range migration algorit...
