Abstract
The clutter background poses a challenge to the detection and recognition of targets from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images, especially when the target is submerged by the clutter. In this paper, we propose a target-oriented SAR waveform optimization method to deal with this problem. The proposed method constructs an optimization criterion jointing the signal-to-clutter ratio (SCR) and the resolution of transmitted waveform. Based on the prior information of the frequency response of the interested target, the clutter suppression performance and the range resolution performance are jointly optimized. The simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively improve the SCR of SAR image in the condition of low SCR, while the resolution performance is guaranteed.
