Abstract
In this letter, a high-resolution SAR imaging algorithm based on a modified omega-K algorithm is proposed. The proposed algorithm first multiplies the reference signal. Then, the azimuth non-stationary phase error (ANSPE) is considered after performing the interpolation process based on the generalized frequency scale transformation. Finally, a well-focused SAR image can be obtained after compensating the ANSPE and correcting the residual spatial variant range migration by utilizing the range segmentation technique. The simulation results of point targets and the real-measured airborne high-resolution SAR data simultaneously verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed algorithm.
