Imaging Method for Co-prime-sampling Space-borne SAR Based on 2D Sparse-signal Reconstruction
-
摘要: 互质采样星载SAR通过方位互质采样代替传统方位均匀采样，可有效缓解空间分辨率与有效成像宽度之间的相互制约，提升SAR系统的对地探测性能。然而，方位向互质采样使得回波信号呈现方位欠采样及非均匀采样特性，导致传统SAR成像处理方法无法实现互质采样星载SAR的有效成像处理。该文提出一种基于2维信号稀疏重构的互质采样星载SAR成像处理方法。该方法在距离向脉冲压缩后，根据各距离门的多普勒参数截取2维观测信号并构造相应的稀疏字典，然后通过改进的2维信号稀疏度自适应匹配追踪算法完成方位聚焦处理。该方法不仅可以补偿SAR回波信号的距离方位2维耦合，还可以消除成像参数随距离空变对稀疏重构造成的影响，从而实现全场景的精确重构。点目标及分布目标仿真实验结果验证了所提算法可在远低于奈奎斯特采样率的情况下实现稀疏场景的有效重构。Abstract: Co-prime-sampling space-borne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) replaces the traditional uniform sampling by performing co-prime sampling in azimuth, which effectively alleviates the conflict between spatial resolution and effective swath width, while also improving the ground detection performance of the SAR system. However, co-prime-sampling in azimuth causes the echo signal to exhibit azimuthal under sampling and non-uniform sampling characteristics, which means the traditional SAR image-processing method can not effectively image co-prime-sampled SAR. In this paper, an imaging method based on Two-Dimensional (2D) sparse-signal reconstruction is proposed for co-prime-sampling space-borne SAR. Using this method, after range-pulse compression, the 2D observed signal is intercepted and a corresponding sparse dictionary consisting of 2D atoms is constructed according to the Doppler parameters of each range gate. Then, azimuth-focus processing is completed by the improved 2D-signal sparsity adaptive matching pursuit algorithm. The proposed method not only compensates for the 2D coupling between the range and azimuth, but also eliminates the influence of space-varying imaging parameters on sparse reconstruction to achieve accurate reconstruction of the entire scene. The simulation results of the point targets and distribution targets verify that the proposed method can effectively reconstruct sparse scenes at a rate much lower than the Nyquist sampling rate.
