MIMO-SAR 3-D Imaging Based on Range Wavenumber Decomposing
2021
Multiple-input-multiple-output synthetic aperture radar (MIMO-SAR) technology is an effective scheme to achieve there-dimensional (3-D) imaging in millimeter wave and terahertz band. Compared with the 2-D array, the system complexity and the number of array elements are greatly reduced. In this paper, an efficient image reconstruction algorithm in wavenumber domain based on phase shift migration (PSM) was proposed for MIMO-SAR 3-D real-time imaging application. By decomposing the range-wavenumber based on binomial approximation theory, the PSM operation can be achieved only by matrix multiplication and Fourier transform (FT) algorithm without time-consuming wavenumber accumulation. Proof-of-principle experiments were also carried out in 0.1THz band based on a MIMO-SAR prototype system. Both simulation and experimental results of different targets show that the image quality of the proposed algorithm is comparable to that of back-projection algorithm (BPA). The partial enlarged images of the imaging results validate that compared with the range migration algorithm (RMA) the proposed algorithm can achieve higher reconstruction accuracy with comparable efficiency.
