Therefore, we used the CS-based signal recovery method to efficiently reconstruct SAR images even when regular data acquisition was not performed. In the proposed method, we used the l1-norm minimization to overcome the non-uniform data acquisition problem, which replaced the Fourier transform and inverse Fourier transform in the conventional SAR image reconstruction method.

Using the proposed method, even if only 70% of the regularly acquired radar sensor data was used, a SAR image having a correlation of 0.83 could be reconstructed.
