通过傅立叶域距离多普勒处理的亚奈奎斯特SAR

Sub-Nyquist SAR via Fourier Domain Range Doppler Processing

Kfir Aberman, Yonina C. Eldar

摘要:

传统的合成孔径雷达(SAR)系统在满足日益增长的空间分辨率和更大覆盖范围的需求方面能力有限。对高分辨率的需求需要高采样率,而覆盖范围受到脉冲重复频率的限制。因此,降低采样率在SAR成像中具有很高的实用价值。本文介绍了一种新的算法,等效于著名的距离-多普勒方法,利用原始信号的傅里叶级数系数来处理SAR数据。然后,我们演示了如何利用算法的功能,以减少采样率在距离和方位轴和处理的信号在次奈奎斯特速率,通过使用压缩感知(CS)工具。特别是,我们证明了图像的恢复只使用一部分的接收信号的带宽,同时也下降了很大比例的发射脉冲。互补脉冲可以用于在相同的相干处理间隔内捕获其他场景。此外,我们建议利用能力,从窄带重建图像,以动态地适应传输的波形能量的空闲频谱带,铺平了道路,认知SAR。所提出的恢复算法形成了一种新的CS-SAR成像方法,可应用于在距离和方位角上以亚奈奎斯特速率采集的高分辨率SAR数据。我们的方法的性能评估使用模拟和真实的数据集。最后,我们的方法是在硬件中实现的,使用以前建议的Xcadron雷达原型。

英文摘要:

Conventional Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) systems are limited in their ability to satisfy the increasing requirement for improved spatial resolution and wider coverage. The demand for high resolution requires high sampling rates, while coverage is limited by the pulse repetition frequency. Consequently, sampling rate reduction is of high practical value in SAR imaging. In this paper, we introduce a new algorithm, equivalent to the well-known Range-Doppler method, to process SAR data using the Fourier series coefficients of the raw signals. We then demonstrate how to exploit the algorithm features to reduce sampling rate in both range and azimuth axes and process the signals at sub-Nyquist rates, by using compressed sensing (CS) tools. In particular, we demonstrate recovery of an image using only a portion of the received signal's bandwidth and also while dropping a large percentage of the transmitted pulses. The complementary pulses may be used to capture other scenes within the same coherent processing interval. In addition, we propose exploiting the ability to reconstruct the image from narrow bands in order to dynamically adapt the transmitted waveform energy to vacant spectral bands, paving the way to cognitive SAR. The proposed recovery algorithms form a new CS-SAR imaging method that can be applied to high-resolution SAR data acquired at sub-Nyquist rates in range and azimuth. The performance of our method is assessed using simulated and real data sets. Finally, our approach is implemented in hardware using a previously suggested Xampling radar prototype.
