A Imaging Passive Localization Method for Wideband Signal Based on SAR

A imaging passive localization method for wideband signal is proposed in this paper. By introducing synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging method, the location of the signal emitter is directly given in SAR image. The key of this method is to focus unknown wideband data in range and azimuth domain. To focus the data in range domain without signal parameter, a new pulse compress method is proposed by constructing reference signal from raw data. To focus the data in azimuth domain without knowing range, a range-searching azimuth focus method is proposed by constructing azimuth focus functions with different range. Simulation result validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
