In addition, currently, the on-orbit satellite-borne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite is generally fixed in the imaging modes such as stripe, TOPS, beam focusing, etc. in the working mode of each turn-on. As shown in FIG. 1, the TOPS mode can realize continuous wide-range imaging under low resolution, and the working mode is shown as a schematic diagram, wherein a working mode of cooperative work of multiple modes does not exist in the current on-orbit satellite-borne SAR system, so that the observation efficiency of the satellite-borne radar is affected to a certain extent.

2) Aiming at the area along the track, carrying out wide-area quick search working modes, and obtaining an imaging result of the area through on-orbit real-time imaging processing, so as to detect, screen and locate an interested target;
3) Calculating and selecting a high beam splitting and focusing working mode, including distance, azimuth resolution and distance azimuth breadth, of parameters of an interested target output by a wide area rapid searching mode working;
4) Developing a target identification confirmation task workflow, and imaging the targets of interest in the region one by one in high resolution;
5) Outputting an interesting target identification confirmation result;
6) And (3) circularly executing the steps 1) to 5), and carrying out the next observation along the track area to realize the multifunctional integrated work of wide area quick search and imaging identification confirmation.
The beneficial effects are that:
Different from the traditional space-borne radar wide-area imaging mode, the mode of the invention is an imaging mode adopting SAR distance-oriented high resolution and azimuth-oriented low resolution, the imaging time can be effectively reduced by reducing the azimuth resolution, the distance-oriented wide-range search imaging is realized in the designated time, meanwhile, the distance-oriented high resolution keeps the distance-oriented image information in the scene target, the detection probability and the classification probability of the target in the image can be improved, the target of interest can be screened and positioned in the search imaging result through space real-time imaging processing and target positioning, and the SAR load system can be switched to the current high-resolution beam-splitting imaging mode by self-leading, so that the target of interest can be imaged in high resolution.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method for detecting a multi-functional on-board wide area imaging search radar is provided, wherein a schematic diagram of an operation mode of the radar is shown in fig. 2, and three schematic areas are provided for convenience of analysis. The satellite flies along the track direction, and a wide-area rapid imaging mode and a target high-resolution beam-focusing mode are alternately developed through reasonable optimization configuration of azimuth time. Taking the area 1 as an example, the fast wide area imaging is to perform fast imaging on the whole area 1, the imaging process is to perform fast imaging on a plurality of sub-band areas one by one (the area 1 is divided into a plurality of distance ion bands along the distance direction), and the target high-resolution beam-focusing imaging is performed according to the result of the fast search imaging on the wide area, such as point target indication in the area 1. After the area 1 completes wide area fast imaging and target high-resolution beam focusing, the satellite sequentially carries out the same workflow on the area 2 and the area 3 along azimuth time. A detailed workflow diagram for each region is shown in fig. 3.
As shown in fig. 3, a multi-functional on-board wide area imaging search radar detection method includes the following steps:
1) The search detection task planning comprises the steps of aiming at a search detection area according to relevant parameters (orbit height H, antenna azimuth length L a, antenna distance azimuth height L r and azimuth scanning capability theta scan) of a satellite-borne radar system, and calculating to obtain a wide-area quick search working mode (mainly distance rho r, azimuth resolution rho a and distance azimuth breadth), wherein in the traditional design case, the satellite-borne SAR is generally designed to realize azimuth continuous observation, the azimuth resolution is generally as follows K a >1 is the system broadening coefficient, N is the number of distance-wise subbands, the distance-wise width W r of each subband is determined by the SAR system practical performance, the azimuth-wise width W a is determined by the azimuth scanning capability, but under this design method, the imaging time of region 1 is about W a/Vst, where V st is the satellite velocity, after imaging is completed, the satellite just runs to region 2, and the system has no additional time to develop the high-resolution beaming mode of operation.
The system design of the invention can design the azimuth resolution asIs a natural number, in which case the imaging time of region 1 is aboutAfter wide area rapid imaging is completed, a certain time remains for developing a working mode of high-resolution beamforming, so that the wide area rapid imaging and the target high-resolution beamforming imaging mode can be simultaneously realized in the observation process of each area, and satellites can be continuous along the track direction.
2) And carrying out wide-area quick search working modes, obtaining imaging results of the area through on-orbit real-time imaging processing, and further detecting, screening and positioning an interested target.
3) For the parameters of the interested target output by the wide area quick search mode work, the reasonable high-splitting beam-gathering work mode is calculated and selected, namely the distance, azimuth resolution and distance azimuth breadth, and the working time of the system capable of carrying out the high-splitting beam-gathering recognition of the target can be obtained by the step 1The distance azimuth resolution can be selected according to the target number which needs high-score identification, and the selected interval is 2-5 m. The range azimuth breadth of the beaming mode is determined by the azimuth and range antenna length of the system.
4) And developing a target identification confirmation task workflow, and imaging the targets of interest in the region one by one in high resolution.
5) And outputting the target identification confirmation result of interest.
6) And (3) circularly executing the steps 1) to 5), and carrying out the next observation along the track area, so that the wide-area rapid searching and imaging identification and confirmation multifunctional integrated work can be realized.
An embodiment of the method implemented based on an actual on-board radar system is given below:
The track height is 500km;
antenna size 4.8m (azimuth direction) ×1.2m (distance direction);
the antenna scanning capability is that the distance direction is +/-25 degrees, and the azimuth direction is +/-15 degrees;
The system wave band is a Ku wave band;
According to the existing design method of the satellite-borne radar mode, in order to realize continuous imaging in the track direction, the main working modes which can be realized by the system are as follows:
3m/30km of strip
TOPS 80m (azimuth) ×80m (distance)/60 km (azimuth) ×700km (distance)
Both modes of operation can be imaged continuously along the track direction, but there is no extra time to complete high resolution target recognition validation.
By adopting the method, the imaging accumulation time can be effectively reduced by reducing the azimuth resolution, the distance resolution is improved, and the detection probability of the target is improved. The following working modes are designed:
Wide area search detection 2m (distance). Times.100 m (azimuth)/60 km (azimuth). Times.700 km (distance), corresponding to one area (area 1) in the graph
High beam-splitting and beam-gathering mode 5m×5m/5km×5km
Thus, the continuous working imaging in azimuth direction can be realized, and further, the multifunctional integrated work of wide area rapid searching, imaging identification and confirmation can be realized by utilizing the workflow shown in fig. 2. Fig. 4 shows the detailed time allocation for zone 1.
While the foregoing has been described in relation to illustrative embodiments thereof, so as to facilitate the understanding of the present invention by those skilled in the art, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments, but is to be construed as limited to the spirit and scope of the invention as defined and defined by the appended claims, as long as various changes are apparent to those skilled in the art, all within the scope of which the invention is defined by the appended claims.
