Title
Costas DFC-Based Random Stepped Wideband Waveform for Interference Countermeasure in SAR Imagery
Abstract
Interference in SAR imagery will induce false targets or form a mask in specific areas to prevent accurate scene assessment. Traditional anti-jamming methods based on waveform agility require a trade-off between anti-jamming performance and imaging quality in waveform design. In this paper, we proposed a SAR ECCM scheme including a Costas DFC-based random stepped wideband waveform and corresponding imaging processing method. The waveform exhibits high flexibility against forwarding interference due to the decomposition of a wideband signal into multiple pulses with different Costas discrete frequency encoding, carrier frequency and phase modulation. Furthermore, the combination of FCDC and the imaging processing successfully overcomes the Doppler sensitivity of the proposed waveform. Extensive simulations confirmed the superiority of this waveform and processing method under different interference strategies.
