Abstract
Compressed sensing (CS) has been increasingly used in the synthetic aperture radar ground moving-target indication system, particularly for imaging the moving targets, which satisfy the sparse precondition of the CS method. However, efficient moving-target imaging is a key challenge for current CS methods, since the redundant basis brings heavy computation load. In this letter, by exploiting the geometry information of the defocused results, we present an efficient fractional Fourier transform (FRFT) to estimate the Doppler rate and image the moving targets by only two times FRFT rather than time-consuming searching operation. Then, the concept is extended into an efficient CS (ECS) imaging method by two bases consisting of two discrete FRFT matrices rather than the redundant basis. Simulations and real-data process are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the ECS method. The proposed ECS method can achieve accurate parameter estimation and imaging performance with low computational complexity.
