Abstract

Compared with other methods, the chirp scaling (CS) algorithm is a novel one for compensating the range migration without any interpolation in SAR imaging. However, its resolution ability cannot exceed that of Fourier transformation. To realize the super-resolution ability in the azimuth direction a chirp scaling Burg (CSB) algorithm is proposed in this paper, which can still reserve the advantage of avoiding any interpolation in the process of the space-variant two dimensional correlation in CS algorithm
