Abstract
The combination of frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) technology and bistatic synthetic aperture radar (SAR) promises a small, light-weight, cost-effective and high-resolution remote sensing system. In this paper, an Omega-k imaging algorithm based on linearization theory to focus the raw data of translational invariant (TI) bistatic FM-CW SAR is proposed. This method utilizes a bistatic point target reference spectrum (BPTRS) of generalized Loffeld's bistatic formula (GLBF), where the motion during the long signal duration time is taken into account. The proposed BPTRS significantly simplify the TI bistatic FMCW SAR processing. Based on the spatial linearization of GLBF, the Stolt transformation is further derived. Finally, simulation experiments are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
