Simultaneous generation and registration of SAR images
Registration of SAR images is required for interferometric processing and multitemporal analysis. A procedure which allows simultaneous generation and registration of SAR images from spaceborne sensors is presented. The procedure is based on the properties of the chirp scaling algorithm and is used in a interferometric processor to generate the interferogram, the fringes and the coherence map.
متن کاملChirp-Scaling based True Amplitude Imaging for Synthetic Aperture Radar
The Chirp-Scaling Algorithm (CSA) is one of the most widely used synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image reconstruction method. However, its applicability is limited to straight flight trajectories and monostatic SAR. We present a new mathematical treatment of the CSA from the perspective of Fourier Integral Operators theory. Our treatment leads to a chirp-scaling-based true amplitude imaging algo...
متن کاملAn efficient Non-Linear Chirp Scaling method of focusing bistatic SAR images
Bistatic SAR data processing parameters, unlike monostatic SAR data, are generally azimuth-variant. The Non-Linear Chirp Scaling (NLCS) algorithm introduced in this paper is able to handle the azimuth variance. It focuses a bistatic image by first introducing a bulk linear range cell migration correction followed by a chirp scaling process to equalize the azimuth chirp rates for all targets in ...
متن کاملAzimuth Nonlinear Chirp Scaling Integrated with Range Chirp Scaling Algorithm for Highly Squinted Sar Imaging
The difficulty of focusing high-resolution highly squinted SAR data comes from the serious azimuth-range coupling, which needs to be compensated in the procedure of imaging. Generally, the linear range walk correction (LRWC) can reduce the coupling effectively, however, it also induces the problem of azimuth-dependence of residual range cell migration (RCM) and quadratic phase. A novel algorith...
متن کاملGeneralized Chirp Scaling Combined with Baseband Azimuth Scaling Algorithm for Large Bandwidth Sliding Spotlight SAR Imaging
This paper presents an efficient and precise imaging algorithm for the large bandwidth sliding spotlight synthetic aperture radar (SAR). The existing sub-aperture processing method based on the baseband azimuth scaling (BAS) algorithm cannot cope with the high order phase coupling along the range and azimuth dimensions. This coupling problem causes defocusing along the range and azimuth dimensi...
