Firstly, the mathematical model of SAR ech o signal which comes from moving targets is constructed. Based on this model, th e features of moving target imaging are introduced and the effects of target mov ement to SAR imaging are analyzed. Then the development and the status of this t echnique are reviewed in detail. Finally, some frontiers of this field are point ed out.展开更多

Time segments of hill are represented by their corresponding particle in B-scan. Those particles in B-scan are clustered to represent reflectors (such as buried targets, air-soil interface). The clusters of buried target have a particle sequence with single peak. Therefore, if the particles donot belong to the cluster of buried target, time segment they represent will be suppressed. Experimental results and simulation are provided to demonstrate that the new algorithm outperforms existing approaches.展开更多

In such an effect, the range-dependent ground clutter spectrum can be easily aligned, and Space-Time Adaptive Processing (STAP) is to be more applicable and effective for the Ground Moving Target Indication (GMTI) in bistatic systems. The backside effect is proved by the numerical calculation method and explained in point of the geometry. At last a new spectrum aligning method is induced, i.e., ADC and Rotation (ADCR), which can gain a further performance improvement on GMTI.展开更多

In this paper, the radar cross sections(RCS) of a pre-assumed generic missile model is computed with multilevel fast multi-pole algorithm(MLFMA), while the RCS of ocean surface is computed by a more reduced form of the fractional Weierstrass scattering model proposed here. At last, the computed RCS of missile model is compared with that of sea surface, and then the comparisons of missile-to-ocean RCS ratios of different incident angles, incident frequencies, and polarization patterns are also presented. The discussion and comparisons of RCS of the missile and ocean surface can help us to plan and design a radar system in the application of detection of a missile target or other analogous weaker targets in the strong sea clutter background.展开更多
