Abstract
Ground moving target indication (GMTI) is one of the most important applications in a general bistatic synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system, where the transmitter and receiver move along nonparallel trajectories with different velocities. In order to improve the capability of clutter cancellation in bistatic SAR/GMTI processing, the coherence between two echoes collected by two receivers is investigated, and the full-coherence conditions are derived. A new coherence-improving algorithm for general bistatic SAR complex image pairs is proposed, which can be realized in the following steps: 2-D range azimuth prefiltering processing, relative geometric deformation correction, and image registration. An approximate implementation of 2-D prefiltering and the corresponding prefilter parameter analysis are also given. Last, two numerical experiment results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
