Abstract:
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) raw signal generation and SAR image simulation of typical targets are very significant for the validation of SAR imaging algorithms, the interpretation of SAR images, and automatic target recognition of SAR images. Based on analysis of the existing SAR raw signal generation and SAR image simulation methods, a new method for SAR raw signal generation and SAR image simulation is proposed. This method combined the curved surface pixel method (CSPM) and the twodimensional FFT (2DFFT) based SAR raw signal generation model. CSPM is used to calculate the target reflectivity, while the 2DFFT method is employed to obtain the raw signal. The simulations are carried out, and the effectiveness of this method is validated by the results of simulating some typical targets.
