Abstract:

We have studied the low precision of parameter estimation for the moving target in airborne single antenna SAR/GMTI mode. Firstly, the Doppler shift parameter and range walk parameter are used to estimate the radical velocity of the moving target, and the range walk parameter is corrected with the estimation results. Secondly, the improved reflectivity displacement method algorithm is used to estimate the Doppler frequency rate, and the azimuth velocity can be calculated when there is no acceleration. Thus, parameter estimation and focusing imaging can be completed at the same time. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
