A fast method for compressive sensing SAR imaging via nonlinear chirp scaling

摘要

A novel SAR imaging approach has been exposed in this paper. It is based on CS theory which aims at getting low sidelobes image with Shannon-Nyquist samplings. Deviated from classical CS-imaging methods in large squint mode, this new method does RCMC on the echo first through nonlinear chirp scaling, and then carries out CS compression in both range and azimuth. This approach depresses the mistakes of RCMC brought by CS algorithm, and relieves the calculating pressures.
