Robust Phase Bias Estimation Method for Azimuth Multi-Channel HRWS SAR System Based on Maximum Modified Kurtosis

The azimuth multi-channel synthetic aperture radar (MC-SAR) systems can simultaneously realize high-resolution and wide-swath (HRWS) earth observations. However, channel phase bias inevitably exists in the practical work of the azimuth MC-SAR system, which is the main factor for the “virtual target” in SAR images. To accurately estimate the phase bias, a channel phase bias estimation approach based on modified kurtosis maximization (MMK) is proposed in this paper. By analyzing the echo characteristics of multi-channel SAR, the proposed approach constructs the objective optimization function of MMK of the reconstructed Doppler spectrum (RDS), and the channel phase bias can be accurately estimated. Simulation experiments and real raw data processing verify the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach, which is not limited by the scene and has a good estimation performance at a low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)

A Novel Method for SAR Ship Detection Based on Eigensubspace Projection

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is a high-resolution radar that operates all day and in all weather conditions, so it has been widely used in various fields of science and technology. Ship detection using SAR images has become important research in marine applications. However, in complex scenes, ships are easily submerged in sea clutter, which cause missed detection. Due to this, strong sidelobes in SAR images generate false targets and reduce the detection accuracy. To solve these problems, a ship detection method based on eigensubspace projection (ESSP) in SAR images is proposed. First, the image is reconstructed into a new observation matrix along the azimuth direction, and the phase space matrix of the reconstructed image is constructed by using the Hankel characteristic, which preliminarily determines the approximate position of the ship. Then, the autocorrelation matrix of the reconstructed image is decomposed by eigenvalue decomposition (EVD). According to the size of the eigenvalues, the corresponding eigenvectors are divided into two parts, which constitute the basis of the ship subspace and the clutter subspace. Finally, the original image is projected into the ship subspace, and the ship data in the ship subspace are rearranged to obtain the precise position of the ship with significantly suppressed clutter. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, the ESSP method is compared with other detection methods on four images at different sea conditions. The results show that the detection accuracy of the ESSP method reaches 89.87% in complex scenes. Compared with other methods, the proposed method can extract ship targets from sea clutter more accurately and reduce the number of false alarms, which has obvious advantages in terms of detection accuracy and timeliness

A Repeater-Type SAR Deceptive Jamming Method Based on Joint Encoding of Amplitude and Phase in the Intra-Pulse and Inter-Pulse

Due to advantages such as low power consumption and high concealment, deceptive jamming against synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has received extensive attention in electronic countermeasures. However, the false targets generated by most of the deceptive jamming methods still have limitations, such as poor controllability and strong regularity. Inspired by the idea of waveform coding, this paper proposed a repeater-type SAR deceptive jamming method through the joint encoding of amplitude and phase in intra-pulse and inter-pulse, which can generate a two-dimensional controllable deceptive jamming effect. Specifically, the proposed method mainly includes two parts, i.e., grouping and encoding. The number of groups determines the number of false targets, and the presence of the phase encoding produces false targets. The amplitude encoding affects the amplitude of the false targets. For the intra-pulse cases, the proposed method first samples the intercepted SAR signal. Meanwhile, the sampling points are grouped in turn. For the inter-pulse cases, the grouped objects are the pulses. Subsequently, the joint encoding of amplitude and phase is performed on each group, which generates jamming signals with deceptive effects. In this paper, the imaging effect of the generated jamming signals is analyzed in detail, and the characteristics of false targets, including numbers, position, and amplitude, are derived. The simulation and experimental results verify the correctness of the theoretical analysis. In addition, the superiority of the proposed method is verified by comparing it with other methods
