Abstract

Different properties of two operation modes for cruise missile borne side looking instantaneous imaging synthetic aperture radar with linear array antenna along flight track were investigated. Its theoretical azimuth resolution was induced and a novel imaging algorithm called compound range-doppler algorithm was proposed. The imaging procedure was given and images were gained with both ECS and compound range-doppler algorithm in the end. The feasibility and validity of compound range-doppler algorithm were confirmed.
