Abstract:
Compressed sensing (CS) theory is widely used in the field of radar imaging. However, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging cannot effectively reconstruct the non-sparse scene by the CS theory. Hence, a novel hybrid sparse SAR imaging method based on L1/2-norm is proposed. The method uses the approximate observation operator instead of the exact observation operator for SAR imaging. It performs the sparse representation of the spatial non-sparse scene with the discrete cosine transform and the curvelet transform. Then, the optimization problem based on the L1/2-norm is solved, so as to realize the reconstruction of the non-sparse scene in SAR imaging. The imaging experiments of simulated and actual scenes demonstrated that, the proposed method can achieve the effective reconstruction of non-sparse scenes under the condition of downsampling.
