A Registration Strategy for Circular SAR Noncoherent Imaging
2020
Circular synthetic aperture radar (CSAR) enables 360-degree observation of the scene. Compared with coherent imaging, noncoherent imaging can suppress speckle and obtain a large number of texture features. However, due to the existence of a man-made anisotropic targets and the unique imaging geometry of CSAR, the different subaperture images are quite different, which makes the registration very difficult. Therefore, this manuscript proposed a factorized registration strategy. First, the full aperture is divided into multiple subapertures; then the adjacent subaperture images are registered and the noncoherent superimposition of the subaperture images yields the next stage image; finally, the previous step is performed iteratively until the final imaging result is obtained. Experimental results based on Ka-band CSAR data verify the effectiveness of the strategy.
