Abstract

Compared with traditional SAR working modes, multi-aspect SAR can provide images with higher resolution and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) due to its larger synthetic aperture. However, the SNR does not increase with the increase of the aperture length. This is because the scattering is no longer isotropic as traditional SAR when the viewing angle is large. In this paper, an adaptive enhanced imaging method for multi-aspect SAR is proposed. The resolution and the SNR are maximized by scattering analysis performed simultaneously with imaging. In the process of image generation, the scattering characteristic is analyzed and all targets are divided into two categories: isotropic and anisotropic. Then different image formation strategies are used for isotropic and anisotropic target. A C-band circular SAR data is used to validate our method.
