Abstract :
Radar signal models and software architecture for spaceborne MIMO SAR simulation are designed in this paper. Spaceborne MIMO SAR signal simulation is separated into several monostatic and bistatic signal simulation tasks. A parallel task decomposition method based on cluster computer environment is proposed to solve the problem of the large requirement of computation and memory. Finally, a typical spaceborne MIMO SAR simulation is executed and experiment results are presented.
