A Modified Frequency Domain Imaging Method for One-stationary Bistatic SAR

Bistatic Synthetic Aperture Radar (BiSAR) in one-stationary mode has many advantages over the traditional monostatic SAR. Its echo, however, shows serious space variance in both range and azimuth directions due to its complex imaging geometry, making it hard to be processed by the frequency methods used in the monostatic SAR. To solve that problem, a method based on blocks and interpolation has been proposed by Wang Yu et al.. With this method, points can be well focused except for those located on the edge of each block. In this paper, a modified method is put forward, which adopts new block-dividing strategy and new mapping relationship in the interpolation. With the proposed method, points on the edge can also be well focused, making the quality of the final image greatly improved.
