Abstract
According to the principle of synthetic aperture ladar, high-resolution imaging can be achieved if the relative motion exists between the target and the ladar. The imaging system has characteristics including a large field of view, narrow-band laser signals applied, and easy engineering implementation. The complex image reconstruction and the synthetic aperture laser imaging method for moving targets based on the spatial light modulator and the direct-detection detector array are proposed. The far-field simulations and the near-field experiments for the stop-and-go target and the continuous-moving target were carried out. It is verified that the complex image reconstruction method can equivalently realize coherent detection for the target and reflect its phase information corresponding to the laser wavelength. Multi-frame complex images reconstructed can be applied to the synthetic aperture laser imaging, which forms high-resolution images for moving targets under far/near-field conditions.
