Description

Accelerated decomposition backward projection bunching synthetic aperture radar imaging method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging, and particularly relates to an accelerated decomposition backward projection bunching synthetic aperture radar imaging method which can be used for an airborne or spaceborne SAR imaging processing platform and is suitable for complex imaging occasions such as nonlinear flight paths, large squints and the like.
Background
The Back-Projection (BP) method realizes the continuous accumulation of energy of each pixel point on an imaging grid through integration along the slope course (called BP integration), and is an accurate bunching SAR imaging algorithm. The time domain back projection method ideally solves the coupling problem of distance and direction, is suitable for image reconstruction under complex imaging geometries such as large coherent accumulation angle or nonlinear flight path, and the focused image has no geometric distortion. However, the computational burden of the time domain backprojection method limits its application to large data scale imaging scenarios.
In order to improve the efficiency of the time domain back projection method, some fast back projection methods are successively proposed, among which fast decomposition back projection (FFBP) method is most representative. The fast decomposition back projection method divides the BP integral on the full aperture into step and segment integrals on the sub-apertures, namely aperture decomposition and recursive fusion. The aperture decomposition establishes a butterfly algorithm structure, which is a precondition for the rapidity of a quick decomposition back projection method; the recursive fusion realizes the formation of the image resolution from low to high, and is an important way for reconstructing a two-dimensional full-resolution image. Based on the thought, the fast decomposition back projection method greatly reduces the operation burden brought by BP integral, and obtains the operation efficiency close to the frequency domain algorithm. In the initial stage and the processing stage, the fast decomposition back projection method establishes a local polar coordinate system by taking the center of each sub-aperture as an origin. For a certain point target in an imaging scene, the point corresponds to different distance and angular domain coordinates under different coordinate systems. Therefore, when the sub-images corresponding to different apertures are fused, a mapping relation from the corresponding coordinate system to the new coordinate system needs to be established, and the process is essentially a two-dimensional processing process depending on distance and angular domain interpolation. However, two-dimensional (point-by-point) interpolation to achieve image fusion causes two main problems: 1) the interpolation operation inevitably introduces errors, and the errors are continuously accumulated and amplified along with the progress of recursive fusion, and finally the loss of image quality is caused; 2) two-dimensional interpolation is a very time-consuming part of the fast decomposition backprojection method. When the number of the apertures divided in the initial stage is less, the interpolation error accumulated by image recursive fusion is smaller, the image quality is improved therewith, but the corresponding operation efficiency is reduced; when the number of the apertures divided in the initial stage is large, the number of times of image recursive fusion is increased, the accumulated interpolation error is large, and the image quality is reduced accordingly.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide an accelerated decomposition backward projection bunching synthetic aperture radar imaging method, which is an accelerated fast backward projection method (AFBP), and is abbreviated as an AFBP method. The AFBP method avoids the accumulation and amplification of interpolation errors and accurately keeps the original form of a wave number spectrum because two-dimensional interpolation and recursive fusion are not needed. Therefore, the AFBP method has higher operation efficiency and more ideal focusing performance than the fast decomposition back projection method. The invention is realized by the following steps:
analyzing the frame configuration and processing links of the existing fast decomposition backward projection method, and finding out the part with high operation complexity in the algorithm; the AFBP method optimizes and improves the part with high operation complexity in the existing fast decomposition back projection method, and the algorithm efficiency is accelerated.

Referring to fig. 3, a schematic diagram of image fusion realized by one-dimensional angle wave number spectrum splicing of the present invention is shown. Order toThe angular resolution unit size corresponding to the u-th sub-apertureOrWhen the spectrum is folded, the angular wavenumber spectrum is folded. However, this phenomenon does not present insurmountable difficulties for the inventive corner-wavenumber spectrum stitching as long as the corner-domain sampling satisfies the Nyquist sampling theorem. According to the Nyquist sampling theorem,is selected to meet
&rho; &alpha; ( u ) &le; &lambda; min 2 l
According to the foregoing description, the synthetic aperture is first divided into N0A sub-aperture. Each sub-aperture corresponds to a sub-image and a separate angular wavenumber spectrum, wherein the wavenumber center and the wavenumber width of the angular wavenumber spectrum correspond to the sub-aperture center and the sub-aperture length, respectively. Under a polar coordinate system, ordered combination of the angular wave number spectrum, namely image fusion, can be realized through a series of simple wave number spectrum shifts. When the angular wave number spectrum is spliced, the center of the angular wave number spectrum of the u-th sub-aperture needs to be shifted from zero frequency to zero frequency through cyclic shift. The image domain is multiplied by the linear phase to realize the shift of the angular wave number spectrum by considering the Fourier transform characteristic of the signal. The shifting of the angular wavenumber spectrum can eliminate the folding phenomenon of the spectrum. And splicing the aperture wave number spectrums into one-dimensional vectors along the azimuth direction, thereby completing the ordered recombination of the wave number spectrums.
One-dimensional wave number spectrum H(u)(Kα) Generalizing to the two-dimensional wavenumber spectrum, the two-dimensional wavenumber variables are first defined as follows:
K &alpha; = K r &CenterDot; X &Delta; K &alpha; = K r &CenterDot; l K r &Element; [ 4 &pi; &lambda; max , 4 &pi; &lambda; min ] K &alpha;c ( u ) = K r &CenterDot; x u

H ( u ) ( K r , K &alpha; ) = rect [ K r - K rc &Delta; K r ] &CenterDot; exp ( - j &CenterDot; K r r p ) &CenterDot; rect [ K &alpha; - K &alpha;c ( u ) &Delta; K &alpha; ] &CenterDot; exp ( - j &CenterDot; K &alpha; &alpha; p )

wherein Δ Kr4 π B/c, c for the speed of light, Δ KrRepresenting the distance wavenumber width.
Under the backward projection framework, step S2 is performed by ignoring Δ R (X; R)pα) X2Constraint of itemsUnder the condition, the Fourier transform relation between the image domain and the angular wave number domain is established, so that the analysis of the two-dimensional wave number spectrum expresses H(u)(Kr,Kα) Is an approximate, resolved rectangular wavenumber spectrum. It should be noted that neither fourier transform nor cyclic shift in the actual processing procedure introduces an approximation, and thus the two-dimensional wavenumber spectrum after stitching is an exact spectrum with a trapezoidal shape, as shown in fig. 4. Referring to FIG. 4, the two-dimensional spectrum splicing of the present invention is a schematic diagram of image fusion, the angular wavenumber centerIs the distance wave number KrIs a linear function of (a). By referring to the angular domain wave number spectrum splicing method shown in fig. 3, the two-dimensional wave number spectrum splicing method is shown in fig. 4. Specifically, a two-dimensional wave number spectrum H corresponding to the u-th sub-aperture is obtained(u)(Kr,Kα) And then, splicing the two-dimensional wave number spectrums corresponding to the sub-apertures in the two-dimensional wave number spectrums corresponding to all the sub-apertures along the azimuth direction to obtain one-dimensional wave number spectrums corresponding to all the sub-apertures (expressed in the form of one-dimensional vectors). Then, the one-dimensional wave number spectrum corresponding to each distance wave number is spliced along the distance direction to obtain a full-aperture two-dimensional wave number spectrum; and performing two-dimensional Fourier transform on the full-aperture two-dimensional wave number spectrum to obtain a full-space resolution image (angular domain full resolution image) under a polar coordinate system.
The operation complexity of step S2 and step S3 is analyzed as follows:
assuming that the number of aperture positions (the number of azimuth pulses and the number of azimuth sampling points) in the full aperture is M, and the number of pixel points of the imaging grid is M × M, the number of aperture positions per sub-aperture is M, where M is M/N0In the two-dimensional wavenumber spectrum stitching stage of step S3, the cyclic shift operation only occupies a very small portion of the overall computation, so that the portion is ignored.
a) The amount of computation required for step S2 is (M/N)0×M/N0×M)×N0
b) In step S3, the calculation amount required for obtaining the two-dimensional wave number spectrum corresponding to each sub-aperture is: [ M &times; M / N 0 &times; ( log 2 M / N 0 + log 2 M ) ] &times; N 0 ;
c) in step S3, the operation amount required for obtaining the full aperture two-dimensional wave number spectrum is M × N0The method comprises the steps of firstly creating a full-aperture wave number spectrum matrix (memory space) when obtaining a full-aperture two-dimensional wave number spectrum, calculating an angular wave number center of the wave number spectrum, realizing ordered splicing of the sub-aperture wave number spectrum along the azimuth direction through cyclic shift, repeating the process along the distance direction, finally realizing splicing of the two-dimensional full-aperture wave number spectrum, obtaining the full-aperture two-dimensional wave number spectrum, and if the operation amount of cyclic shift operation is ignored, calculating the operation amount required by the angular wave number center to be M × N0
d) In step S3, the amount of computation required for performing the two-dimensional fourier transform on the full-aperture two-dimensional wave number spectrum is
In summary, the total operation amount OP of step S2 and step S3AFBPComprises the following steps:
OP AFBP = M 3 / N 0 + 3 M 2 log 2 M + M 2 log 2 M / N 0 + MN 0
observe the above formula, OPAFBPIs about N0Is a monotonically decreasing function of (a). Therefore, when N is0The larger the calculation amount of step S2 and step S3, the smaller the total calculation amount, the higher the calculation efficiency. When the length of the sub-aperture is very small, such as m 4 or m 8, the angular wavenumber spectrum bandwidth is very narrow, blurring of the full-aperture wavenumber spectrum is easily caused at the time of stitching of the wavenumber spectrum, and degradation of image quality is caused. When in actual data processing, the wave number spectrum can be ensured to have good precision by taking m as 16 or m as 32, and the calculation efficiency of the algorithm can be considered.
After step S3, converting the full-space-resolved image in the polar coordinate system into the planar rectangular coordinate system by two-dimensional interpolation, so as to obtain the full-space-resolved image in the planar rectangular coordinate system. And then displaying the full-space resolution image under the plane rectangular coordinate system on a display.

The main parameters of the computer simulation platform are as follows: a 2.53GHz processor, 4GB memory (RAM), a 64-bit operating system, and 64-bit MATLAB.7.10.0 software.
Simulation content and simulation result analysis:
in the simulation experiment, the present invention, a Back-Projection (BP) method, and a fast decomposition Back-Projection (FFBP) method were used to perform imaging simulation, respectively. When the imaging simulation is carried out by adopting a fast decomposition back projection method, a local polar coordinate system subimage is reconstructed through the sub-aperture BP integral, but in the invention, the subimage is reconstructed in a global polar coordinate system. The invention and the fast decomposition back projection method only need to carry out distance interpolation at the corresponding stage, and do not need to carry out angular domain interpolation. In order to ensure the fairness and the comparability of a simulation experiment, the method and the fast decomposition back projection method are realized by up-sampling when distance interpolation is carried out, and the method comprises the following basic steps: zero filling at two ends of a distance frequency domain, inverse Fourier transform and low-order interpolation, wherein the up-sampling multiple is 8 to ensure the interpolation precision.
When obtaining a full-space resolution image under a polar coordinate system, the fast decomposition back projection method realizes the recursive fusion of the image by means of two-dimensional distance interpolation, wherein the distance interpolation is still realized by 8 times of upsampling, and the angular domain interpolation is realized by truncated sinc interpolation. And obtaining a full-space resolution image under a polar coordinate system after the recursive fusion is finished. When a full-space resolution image under a polar coordinate system is obtained, the full-aperture wave number spectrum is recombined through Fourier transform and cyclic shift, and interpolation processing is not needed in the process. And performing two-dimensional inverse Fourier transform on the full-aperture wave number spectrum to obtain a full-space resolution image under a polar coordinate system.
For the method and the fast decomposition back projection method, different sub-aperture lengths are set (at the moment, the number m of the aperture positions of each sub-aperture is respectively set to be 32, 16 and 8), three groups of different imaging results are obtained through three different experiments, and the reconstructed images are all full-space resolution images under a polar coordinate system. In order to illustrate the image focusing quality of the present invention and the fast decomposition back projection method, three point targets of P1, P2 and P3 in fig. 5 were selected for image quality analysis. Limited to space limitations and emphasis, only the azimuthal impulse response function of the three point targets at different sub-aperture lengths l is given here, as shown in fig. 6. Referring to fig. 6a, an azimuth impulse response function diagram of three points P1, P2 and P3 is reconstructed by using three methods when the number of aperture positions of each sub-aperture in the simulation experiment is 32. Referring to fig. 6b, an azimuth impulse response function diagram of three points P1, P2 and P3 is reconstructed by using three methods when the number of aperture positions of each sub-aperture in the simulation experiment is 16. Referring to fig. 6c, an azimuth impulse response function diagram of three points P1, P2 and P3 is reconstructed by using three methods when the number of aperture positions of each sub-aperture in the simulation experiment is 8. In fig. 6a, 6b and 6c, the horizontal axis represents angular domain interpolation position and the vertical axis represents normalized amplitude in dB.
It can be seen from fig. 6 that even though the values of the sub-aperture length l are different, the present invention and the fast decomposition back projection method can both achieve good focusing performance. The quality of the reconstructed image of the present invention and the fast decomposition backprojection method improves as the sub-aperture length l increases. When the length L of the sub-aperture is equal to the length L of the synthetic aperture, namely when the sub-aperture is not divided, the quality of the reconstructed image of the method disclosed by the invention and the method for fast decomposing the back projection is equivalent to a time domain back projection method. And as the subaperture length is decreased, the notch depth of the main lobe of the IRF (impulse response function) in the fast decomposition back projection method is continuously changed to be shallow, the side lobe of the IRF is continuously increased, and the response form of the side lobe of the IRF in the fourth and the later stages is not ideal. When the aperture length is equal to the initial stage aperture length of the fast decomposition back projection method, the impulse response function curve (the azimuth profile of the three points P1, P2 and P3) of the invention is closer to the time domain back projection method. At this time, the zero depth of the main lobe and other positions of the invention is lower than that of the fast decomposition back projection method. As shown in fig. 6a, when the number of initial sub-aperture positions is 32, the impulse response function curves of the three points P1, P2 and P3 obtained by the present invention are substantially consistent with the time domain back projection method, and there is no undesirable situation of high order side lobe (IRF side lobe) when the far-field point P3 is focused by the fast decomposition back projection method. From the above analysis of fig. 6, the present invention intuitively has a more desirable focusing performance than the fast decomposition backprojection method. In order to provide quantitative evaluation of image quality and computational efficiency, parameters such as corresponding Peak Side Lobe Ratio (PSLR), Integrated Side Lobe Ratio (ISLR), processing time, and the like are obtained as shown in table two. As seen from the table II, the peak-to-side lobe ratio performance of the method is slightly better than that of the fast decomposition back projection method, but the method has obvious improvement on the integral-to-side lobe ratio. In the case of close peak sidelobe performance, the lower the integral sidelobe ratio, the higher the contrast of the image, and this phenomenon will be better exemplified in the processing of the measured data. From the aspect of processing time, under the condition that the sub-aperture lengths are equal, the method has higher operation efficiency than a fast decomposition back projection method. The aperture decomposition brings good operation efficiency for the fast decomposition back projection method, but the two-dimensional interpolation realizes recursive fusion and brings extra operation burden to the algorithm. For the fast decomposition backprojection method, the shorter the sub-aperture length, the larger the amount of computation required for recursive fusion. Corresponding to the above three different sub-aperture lengths, the time consumed by the present invention in performing step S2 is 73.8S, 36.6S, and 18.7S, respectively. As can be seen from the total processing time in the second comparison table, the calculation amount of the present invention is mostly concentrated on the step S2, and the time consumption of the spectrum stitching stage is very small. In summary, the invention and the fast decomposition back projection method both greatly improve the operation efficiency of the BP integration, but the invention is superior to the fast decomposition back projection method in terms of imaging accuracy and operation efficiency.
TABLE II image quality evaluation and processing time comparison
Actually measured data experiment:
the performance of the invention will be verified by X-band high resolution beamforming SAR imaging processing. In the actual measurement data experiment, 16384 pulse echoes are contained in the corresponding echo signal, and the synthetic aperture time is 7.8 seconds. The transmission signal bandwidth is 1.16GHz, and the center slant distance is 10.5 Km. The number of distance sampling points used in data processing is 16384, and the imaging range is 1.6 × 1.2 km. Considering the influence of two-dimensional windowing on the broadening of the main lobe of the IRF, the theoretical values of the distance and azimuth resolutions are about 0.15 m.
In order to explain the difference of image fusion realized by two-dimensional interpolation processing and two-dimensional wave number spectrum splicing and avoid interpolation errors introduced by subsequent coordinate system transformation, the given processing results are all located in a polar coordinate system, and the reconstructed image is a full-space resolution image in the polar coordinate system. In the actual measurement data experiment, the image reconstruction is respectively carried out by adopting the method and the fast decomposition back projection method, and the obtained images are respectively shown in fig. 7a and fig. 7 b. Referring to fig. 7a, a full-space resolution image in a polar coordinate system is reconstructed by using a fast decomposition back projection method in a measured data test. Referring to fig. 7b, the full-space resolution image in the polar coordinate system reconstructed by the present invention in the measured data test is shown.
It can be seen from fig. 7a and 7b that the accuracy of the fast decomposition backprojection method is inherited, and both the fast decomposition backprojection method and the present invention achieve good focusing of the image. During data processing, 1024 sub-apertures are divided, each sub-aperture containing 16 aperture locations. The fast decomposition back projection method needs 10 times of recursion processing to realize image fusion, and the operation time is 5751.4 s; the invention only needs one-time spectrum splicing to realize image fusion, the operation time is 1723.4s, and the operation time for realizing image fusion is shorter than that of the fast decomposition back projection method.
As can be seen from fig. 7a and 7b, both the fast decomposition backprojection method and the present invention achieve good focusing of the image. However, from the imaging of field texture and dense building clusters in the lower part of fig. 7, the present invention contributes slightly better to image contrast than the fast decomposition back projection method. In order to evaluate the image quality of the present invention and the fast decomposition backprojection method in only one step, three different sub-scenes (indicated as A, B and C in fig. 7a and 7b, respectively) extracted from fig. 7a and 7b are subjected to an enlargement process to obtain three sub-scene images, as shown in fig. 8. Referring to fig. 8a, the full-space resolution image under the polar coordinate system of the sub-scene a obtained by adopting the fast decomposition back projection method in the actual measurement data test is shown, and referring to fig. 8b, the full-space resolution image under the polar coordinate system of the sub-scene a obtained by adopting the method in the actual measurement data test is shown; referring to fig. 8c, the full-space resolution image under the polar coordinate system of the sub-scene B obtained by adopting the fast decomposition back projection method in the actual measurement data test is referred to fig. 8d, the full-space resolution image under the polar coordinate system of the sub-scene B obtained by adopting the method in the actual measurement data test is referred to; referring to fig. 8e, the full-space resolution image of the sub-scene C in the polar coordinate system obtained by the fast decomposition back projection method in the measured data test is shown, and referring to fig. 8f, the full-space resolution image of the sub-scene C in the polar coordinate system obtained by the fast decomposition back projection method in the measured data test is shown. From fig. 8a to fig. 8f, it is seen that the point target is well focused by the present invention and the fast decomposition back projection method, but the focused point target has more concentrated energy, lower IRF side lobe level and better image contrast, and this phenomenon is attributed to the present invention that reasonably avoids the influence of interpolation error and its accumulation effect on the wave number spectrum precision. In sub-scene a, there are two azimuthally adjacent 0.15m apart corner reflectors (labeled point target 1 and point target 2 in fig. 8 b) and an independently placed corner reflector (point target 3), which are identified by a circular ring in fig. 8 a. To illustrate the resolution performance of the present invention, point targets 1 and 2 were imaged and analyzed for the azimuthal impulse response function, as shown in FIG. 9. Referring to fig. 9a, a schematic diagram of an imaging result after two-dimensional interpolation obtained by using a fast decomposition back projection method for two point targets in an actually measured data experiment is shown. Referring to fig. 9b, a schematic diagram of an imaging result after two-dimensional interpolation is obtained for two point targets in an actually measured data experiment by using the method of the invention. Referring to fig. 9c, schematic diagrams of azimuth impulse response functions obtained by two methods for two point targets in the measured data experiment are shown. In fig. 9a and 9b, the horizontal axis represents the angular interpolation position, and the vertical axis represents the distance interpolation position. In fig. 9c, the horizontal axis represents angular domain interpolation position and the vertical axis represents normalized amplitude. AFBP refers to the present invention, and FFBP refers to the fast decomposition backprojection method. As can be seen in fig. 9c, the IRF main lobes for the two targets have been separated, indicating that adjacently placed corner reflectors can be well resolved.
To illustrate the focusing performance of the present invention, the point target 3 is imaged and analyzed for the azimuth impulse response function, as shown in fig. 10. Referring to fig. 10a, a schematic diagram of a two-dimensional interpolated imaging result obtained by a fast decomposition back projection method for a point target 3 in an actual measurement data experiment is shown. Referring to fig. 10b, a schematic diagram of an imaging result of the point target 3 after two-dimensional interpolation obtained by the present invention in an experiment of measured data is shown. Referring to fig. 10c, the point target 3 is shown in the experimental data by two methods to obtain the azimuth impulse response function. In fig. 10a and 10b, the horizontal axis represents the angular interpolation position, and the vertical axis represents the distance interpolation position. In fig. 10c, the horizontal axis represents angular domain interpolation position and the vertical axis represents normalized amplitude. AFBP refers to the present invention, and FFBP refers to the fast decomposition backprojection method. As can be seen from FIG. 10c, the IRF first minor lobe of the present invention is close to-25 dB, whereas the first minor lobe on the left side of the IRF is about-15 dB in the fast decomposition backprojection method, but is already absorbed by the IRF main lobe. It can be found from fig. 9c and fig. 10c that the IRF side lobe performance of the present invention is still better than that of the fast decomposition back projection method when processing the measured data, which is consistent with the conclusion obtained by the simulation experiment. Of course, the fast decomposition back projection method can improve the side lobe performance of the azimuth impulse response function by properly increasing the aperture length of the initial stage, and the method necessarily increases the processing time of the algorithm. Compared with a fast decomposition back projection method, the method can obtain better image quality and higher operation efficiency under the condition of relatively shorter sub-aperture.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Thus, if such modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include such modifications and variations.
