对合成孔径雷达的步进移频干扰

为了使压制干扰获得更多的SAR匹配处理增益,从而进一步降低干扰功率,提出了一种脉内脉间二维部分相干干扰：步进移频干扰。该干扰在保留信号脉内脉间相位特性的同时,让干扰载频在脉间步进递增或递减变化,人为产生距离向和方位向的耦合效应。理论分析和仿真实验表明,该干扰可同时获得SAR在距离向和方位向的部分匹配处理增益,因而降低了干扰功率需求。此外,该干扰的SAR成像输出为一个干扰区域,无需复杂的复合调制即可作为压制干扰掩护分布式目标,干扰实施简单,是一种有效的SAR压制干扰方式。
     

Constellation analysis of an integrated AIS/remote sensing spaceborne system for ship detection

A future system integrating data from remote sensing and upcoming AIS satellites is analyzed through the development of a novel design method for global, discontinuous coverage constellations. It is shown that 8 AIS satellites suffice to guarantee global coverage and a ship location update of 50 min if the spaceborne AIS receiver has a swath of 2800 nm. Furthermore, synergic utilization of COSMO/SkyMed and Radarsat-C data would provide a mean revisit time of 7 h, with AIS information available within 25 min from SAR data acquisition.     

Matching suitable feature construction for SAR images based on evolutionary synthesis strategy

In the paper,a set of algorithms to construct synthetic aperture radar（SAR）matching suitable features are frstly proposed based on the evolutionary synthesis strategy.During the process,on the one hand,the indexes of primary matching suitable features（PMSFs）are designed based on the characteristics of image texture,SAR imaging and SAR matching algorithm,which is a process involving expertise;on the other hand,by designing a synthesized operation expression tree based on PMSFs,a much more flexible expression form of synthesized features is built,which greatly expands the construction space.Then,the genetic algorithm-based optimized searching process is employed to search the synthesized matching suitable feature（SMSF）with the highest effciency,largely improving the optimized searching effciency.In addition,the experimental results of the airborne synthetic aperture radar ortho-images of C-band and P-band show that the SMSFs gained via the algorithms can reflect the matching suitability of SAR images accurately and the matching probabilities of selected matching suitable areas of ortho-images could reach 99±0.5%.     

Subsidence rate monitoring of Aghajari oil field based on Differential SAR Interferometry

Land subsidence, due to natural or anthropogenic processes, causes significant costs in both economic and structural aspects. That part of subsidence observed most is the result of human activities, which relates to underground exploitation. Since the gradual surface deformation is a consequence of hydrocarbon reservoirs extraction, the process of displacement monitoring is amongst the petroleum industry priorities. Nowadays, Differential SAR Interferometry, in which satellite images are utilized for elevation change detection and analysis – in a millimetre scale, has proved to be a more real-time and cost-effective technology in contrast to the traditional surveying method. In this study, surface displacements in Aghajari oil field, i.e. one of the most industrious Iranian hydrocarbon sites, are being examined using radar observations. As in a number of interferograms, the production wells inspection reveals that surface deformation signals develop likely due to extraction in a period of several months. In other words, different subsidence or uplift rates and deformation styles occur locally depending on the geological conditions and excavation rates in place.

雷达图像幅值空间变迹算法

针对旁瓣抑制，给出了一种幅值空间变迹算法。该算法与一般空间变迹法不同，主要通过每一像素点幅值与相邻两个Nyquist采样点幅值之和做比较来判别该点处于主瓣还是旁瓣，来加以不同处理。在整数倍Nyquist采样的情况下，这种算法不仅压低旁瓣还使主瓣变窄，能得到比传统SVA更高的分辨率，在非整数倍Nyquist采样的情况下也比SVA具有更好的稳健性。对此进行了实验研究，结果证实了该算法的有效性。
