Abstract
Multi-channel, DBF-based high-resolution wide swath SAR (HRWS-SAR) is dedicated to acquiring large observation width and high resolution in a single pass. However, the existing HRWS-SAR imaging modes are difficult to cover effectively for the coastline area not parallel to the satellite orbit. Combined with the beam direction changing, variable PRI and distance-oriented DBF techniques, the wide-swath range sweep SAR (WRS-SAR) can image the wide coastline area not parallel to the satellite orbit at high resolution in a single-pass. In this study, an extended wide nonlinear chirp scaling (E-WLNCS) algorithm is proposed, which mainly consists of: a time-domain blind range sample reconstruction algorithm combined with phase variation estimation, a non-uniform resampling algorithm combined with Doppler variation correction, and the effectiveness of the proposed modified E-WLNCS algorithm is demonstrated through point target and surface target simulations.
