As a typical phase correction method, Doppler centroid tracking (DCT) method has clear principle and small computation amount. However, the performance of DCT is normally unsatisfactory when the target has strong scattering centers. Based on the analysis and comparison of existing methods, the image-domain equilibrium is proposed in this paper to improve the performance of DCT method. By using the simple operators of equilibrium and feedback, the proposed method may dramatically reduce the effect of prominent scattering centers and improve the robustness and the ultimate imaging quality. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified via the performance analysis and imaging results of real airplane target.","PeriodicalId":174133,"journal":{"name":"2007 1st Asian and Pacific Conference on Synthetic Aperture Radar","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114890217","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Generally, the orbit of satellite for remote sensing purposes is an ellipse with small eccentricity, and the earth should be modeled as an ellipsoid. It is well known that a second-order relative motion model can be a good approximation to a monostotic spaceborne SAR. However, for bistatic cases, this phase history model mismatches the real relative motion between a satellite and a rotating earth, dissatisfying the imaging accuracy requirement, and it limits the available azimuth resolution. In order to use the well studied SAR imaging algorithms, we develop a new second-order phase history model for bistatic spaceborne SAR using the phase error fitting method based on the ephemeris data. The new model strengthens the applicability of the conventional second-order phase history model of spaceborne bistatic SAR significantly.","PeriodicalId":174133,"journal":{"name":"2007 1st Asian and Pacific Conference on Synthetic Aperture Radar","volume":"123 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115529256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the advantages of this approach over the traditional speckle filtering method is the fact that textures are preserved while speckle is reduced.
