ISAR Imaging of Ship Target with Complex Motion Based on New Approach of Parameters Estimation for Polynomial Phase Signal

摘要

ISAR imaging of ships at sea with significant motion results in the Doppler frequency shift for the received signal is time-varying, which will deteriorate the ISAR image quality for the Range-Doppler (RD) algorithm. In this paper, the received signal is modeled as a multicomponent cubic phase signal (CPS), and a new method for estimating the parameters of CPS based on the integrated high-order matched phase transform (IHMPT) is proposed. This algorithm is simpler and more computational efficient than some of other parameters estimation algorithms proposed previously. Then, combined with the Range-Instantaneous-Doppler (RID) technique, the high quality instantaneous ISAR images can be obtained. The results of simulated and measured data are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new method proposed.
