Abstract

Bistatic inverse synthetic aperture radar (BiISAR) imaging and interferometric inverse synthetic aperture radar (InISAR) imaging can provide complementary information to monostatic inverse synthetic aperture radar (MoISAR) imaging. Time synchronization is a requirement for both systems. This paper focuses on the problem of the time synchronization in the BiISAR and InISAR imaging with a polynomial time synchronization error model (PTSEM) in theory. The effects of the time synchronization errors to the range and azimuth compression with the synchronization errors are analyzed in detail. A phase error model transferred from the synchronization errors to the interferometric error is established. A simulation displays the results of the analysis.
