Title
On the Baseband Doppler Centroid Estimation for Multichannel HRWS SAR Imaging
Abstract
In multichannel high-resolution and wide-swath (HRWS) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems, Doppler centroid (DC) is essential for SAR focusing. However, conventional phase-dependent DC estimators for single-channel SAR systems face many problems in multichannel HRWS SAR systems because of the azimuth undersampling of each channel and channel mismatches in phase. To estimate the baseband DC, the spatial cross-correlation coefficients (SCCCs) of multichannel HRWS SAR signals are exploited, and a novel baseband DC estimator named SCCC method is proposed in this letter. Validation of the proposed method is demonstrated with the real airborne multichannel SAR data.
