Abstract

Linear array multiple-input multiple-output synthetic aperture radar (LA-MIMO SAR) tomography can provide 3-D radar images without layover and geometric distortion effects. However, suffering from the channel and motion error, and large computation, the real LA-MIMO-SAR data is difficult to be well focused quickly. Therefore, the 3-D imaging results of real LA-MIMO-SAR data are rarely shown in existing literature. In this paper, real LA-MIMO-SAR data imaging processing method based on 3-D fast factorized Backprojection is proposed to well focus the echoes with channel and motion errors, and large size of data. Then, our experiments of LA-MIMO-SAR 3-D imaging are demonstrated. The LA-MIMO radar is installed to a special tower crane and works in downward-looking and forward-looking geometry. Some 3-D imaging results are demonstrated to verify the downward-looking and forward-looking LA-MIMO-SAR modes and the processing method.
