Zusammenfassung:For missile-borne platforms, traditional SAR technology consistently encounters two significant shortcomings: geometric distortion of 2D images and the inability to achieve forward-looking imaging. To address these issues, this paper explores the feasibility of using a maneuvering trajectory to enable forward-looking and three-dimensional imaging by analyzing the maneuvering characteristics of an actual missile-borne platform. Additionally, it derives the corresponding resolution characterization model, which lays a theoretical foundation for future applications. Building on this, the paper proposes a three-dimensional super-resolution imaging algorithm that combines axis rotation with compressed sensing. The axis rotation not only realizes the dimensionality reduction of data, but also can expand the observation scenario in the cross-track dimension. The proposed algorithm first focuses on the track-vertical plane to extract 2D position parameters. Then, a compressed sensing-based process is applied to extract reflection coefficients and super-resolution cross-track position parameters, thereby achieving precise 3D imaging reconstruction. Finally, numerical simulation results confirm the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed algorithm.
