Abstract

Among the currently available chirp scaling algorithms for bi-static SAR, some compromise with approximation in the range model, while some others use the equivalent method by first changing bi-static SAR into mono-static SAR then apply chirp scaling algorithm of mono-static SAR. Consequently, as the squint angles get large, the performance of focusing will deteriorate significantly. This paper, however, abandons those traditional solutions to the bi-static imaging problems and introduces a novel method, based on the space model of bi-static platforms. First, a precise range model is established. Then, a new chirp scaling algorithm for bi-static SAR using the precise range model is advanced. It is theoretically proven that this is an analytic solution of the bi-static chirp scaling algorithm. Images can be focused accurately even with large squint angles. At last simulations with large squint angles are made to verify the validity of the algorithm.
