Abstract

This paper presents a study on signal modeling for airborne multichannel circular stripmap synthetic aperture radar (CSSAR)-ground moving target indication (GMTI) systems with relatively high resolution. High resolution is an important trend of synthetic aperture radar (SAR), which means higher accuracy requirement of range history and longer synthetic aperture time. It's known that targets are probably experience accelerations as the synthetic aperture time increases. Therefore, compared with the systems of lower resolution, the target signal modeling of high-resolution systems becomes more challenging. Besides, the coupling relationship among a target's motion and position parameters becomes more complicated due to the existence of accelerations. In this paper, a fourth-order range history model of a moving target is developed. Moreover, the target signal model is established, and the along-track interferometric (ATI) phase history is derived to reveal the coupling relationship among a target's motion and position parameters.
