The invention relates to a non-linear
chirp scaling imaging method comprising the following steps: carrying out down-conversion,
low pass filtering, distance and
azimuth Fourier transform for
glacier thickness detection
radar echo signals, obtaining reference points of two dimension
frequency domain echo signal in
wavenumber domain, and carrying out
phase compensation for the reference points; carrying out distance Fourier inversion to compensated
wavenumber domain, multiplying distance migration of distance Doppler domain with a non-linear
chirp scaling factor, carrying out non-linear
chirp scaling correction, carrying out distance
Fourier transform to distance Doppler domain signals correcting distance migration, obtaining a
wavenumber domain
signal of
phase compensation and distance migration correction, carrying out distance focusing to the obtained wavenumber domain
signal, obtaining the focused wavenumber domain
signal, carrying out distance Fourier inversion to the focused wavenumber domain signal, carrying out
azimuth compression and residual
phase compensation to the distance Doppler domain signals, obtaining the distance Doppler domain signals after
azimuth compression and residual phase compensation, carrying out azimuth Fourier inversion to the distance Doppler domain signals after the
azimuth compression and residual phase compensation, thereby obtaining
radar detected
glacier thickness image.
