Wavelet-packet-based time-frequency distribution and its application to radar imaging

摘要

An efficient wavelet-packet-based time-frequency technique is proposed in this paper. This technique has found applications in inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR). It combines the Wigner-Ville distribution (WVD) of each sub-band signal partitioned from an input signal by the wavelet-packet transform (WTP). These distributions are used to estimate the parameter sin Doppler processing/ Similar parametric compensation Is carried out in range processing s that a specific scatterer is focused in both range and cross-range. The End result uses the Fourier imaging method to obtain a high-resolution radar image. This technique is primarily Based on estimation and compensation of the Doppler scattering parameters of the dominant scatterers for Improved focus. It can be of great value to the scattering-oriented ISAR imaging.
