摘要
The wide-swath method based on multi-receiver is a novel and highly accurate wide-swath method, which requires a very precise view angle. The estimated angle has error because of the atmosphere refraction, angle error of view and target height. A method is proposed in this paper to estimate the angle error from the return signal. The method makes use of the relationship between the view angle error and the signal correlation of the subswaths to estimate the angle error. The precision of this method is analyzed by the law of great number and it turns out to be in direct proportion to the root square number of averaging. The simulation result is given and the angle precision is 0.025°.
