Abstract

Shadow Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (SISAR) imaging algorithm is a kind of technology to extract the profile of a target from the forward scattering signal. The imaging accuracy depends on the target coordinate estimation precision. In this paper, the relationship between the imaging error and coordinate estimation errors is analytically derived with the forward scattering signal model under the assumption of small diffraction angles. The quantitative requirements for coordinate estimation precision are made. Finally, impacts of coordinate estimation errors on SISAR imaging accuracy are verified via simulation results.
