Abstract

This letter proposes an omega-K algorithm for missile-borne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) diving with constant acceleration. The essence of the novel method is to derive a reference function multiplication from the equivalent range history. The true range history is divided into two parts: range independent and range dependent. After compensating the range-independent part with considering all the terms, we can regard the range-dependent part as an equivalent range history with a form similar to that of conventional SAR. Then, an analytical 2-D spectrum can be used for the omega-K algorithm. The proposed algorithm can handle general missile configurations with wide swaths and high squint angles. Simulation results are presented to validate the proposed method.
