Abstract

The joint FPGA and multi-DSP imaging architecture has found widespread use in airborne SAR and satellite-based SAR. However, traditional back-projection (BP) algorithms are not efficient enough for real-time imaging. This paper proposes a back-projection algorithm based on wavenumber-domain spectral splicing (WFBP) for designing an efficient SAR imaging system. A unified polar coordinate system is employed in this work to project the sub-aperture imaging results, which eliminates the need for a large amount of interpolation and multiple projection transformations. Furthermore, spectral shifting is applied to eliminate the effects caused by wavenumber-domain spectral overlap. Experimental results demonstrate that the WFBP algorithm reduces the imaging time by 64% compared to the traditional BP algorithm.
