Because the azimuth sample is not perpendicular to the range sample,the range signal must impact on the azimuth signal in the squint SAR data processing, andthe different slant range targets have different Doppler frequencies. From the mathematicalmodel of SAR echo signal, this paper carefully analyzes the instantaneous azimuth frequency, theinstantaneous Doppler frequency component of the azimuth frequency and the impact of rangechirp on azimuth frequency, which explains that Doppler frequency should be properly selected forcorrect SAR imaging in the squint SAR. The results of point target simulation experiments showthat the way is reasonable for the squint SAR and can effectively complete range compressionand azimuth focusing, and improve images' quality.展开更多
