Abstract

In this letter, a novel method is proposed to estimate the along-track baseline for a multichannel high-resolution and wide-swath (HRSW) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system. First, a spatial correlation function is constructed to remove the range cell migration and Doppler broadening of ground static targets. Then, the iterative adaptive approach (IAA) is applied to iteratively estimate the along-track baseline with high precision. Finally, a high-resolution SAR image can be obtained based on the estimated baseline. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is validated by both simulated and real SAR data.
