Phase Shift Migration with Modified Coherent Factor Algorithm for MIMO-SAR 3D Imaging in THz Band
In multiple-input-multiple-output synthetic aperture radar (MIMO-SAR) systems, sparse arrays are usually applied, resulting in increased sidelobes of the point spread function. In this paper, a phase shift migration (PSM) imaging algorithm based on the explosion reflection model with modified cohere...

description |
In multiple-input-multiple-output synthetic aperture radar (MIMO-SAR) systems, sparse arrays are usually applied, resulting in increased sidelobes of the point spread function. In this paper, a phase shift migration (PSM) imaging algorithm based on the explosion reflection model with modified coherent factor was proposed for sidelobe suppression in MIMO-SAR three-dimensional (3D) imaging application. By defining the virtual difference wavenumber, reconstructing the raw echo by data rearrangement in wavenumber domain, the original coherent factor algorithm operating in spatial domain can be achieved by the PSM algorithm frame in the wavenumber domain, which means two orders of magnitude increase in computational efficiency. The correctness of the theory is verified by simulation. Finally, a bistatic prototype imaging system in the 0.3 THz band was designed for the proof-of-principle experiments. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has a 0.948 structural similarity value to the original coherent factor back-projection algorithm (CF-BPA) which means comparable image quality with much superior efficiency. |
