This paper presents an interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) imaging method based on L1 regularization reconstruction model for SAR complex-image and raw data via complex approximated message passing (CAMP) with joint reconstruction model. As an iterative recovery algorithm for L1 regularization, CAMP can not only obtain the sparse estimation of considered scene as other regularization recovery algorithms, but also a non-sparse solution with preserved background information, thus can be used to InSAR processing. The contributions of the proposed method are as follows. On the one hand, as multiple SAR complex images are strongly correlated, single-channel independent reconstruction via Lq regularization cannot preserve the interferometric phase information, while the proposed mixed norm-based L1 regularization joint reconstruction model via CAMP algorithm can ensure the preservation of interferometric phase information among multiple channels. On the other hand, the interferogram reconstructed by the proposed CAMP-based InSAR imaging with joint reconstruction model can improve the performance of noise reduction efficiently compared with conventional matched filtering (MF) results. Experiments carried out on simulated and real data confirmed the feasibility of the L1 regularization joint reconstruction model via CAMP for InSAR processing with preserved interferometric phase information and better noise reduction performance.
In this paper, we proposed an azimuth-range decouple-based L1 regularization method for wide ScanSAR imaging via extended chirp scaling (ECS) and applied it to the TerraSAR-X data to achieve large-scale sparse reconstruction. Compared with ECS, the conventional ScanSAR imaging algorithm based on matched filtering, the proposed method can improve the synthetic aperture radar image performance with full-sampling raw data for not only sparse but also nonsparse surveillance regions. It can also achieve high-resolution imaging for sparse considered scenes efficiently using down-sampling raw data. Compared with a typical L1 regularization imaging approach, which requires transfer of the two-dimensional (2-D) echo data into a vector and reconstruction of the scene via 2-D matrix operation, our proposed method has less computational cost and hence makes the large-scale regularization reconstruction of considered area become possible. The experimental results via real data validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
In this paper, we develop a group sparsity based wide angle synthetic aperture radar (WASAR) imaging model and propose a novel algorithm called backprojection based group complex approximate message passing (GCAMP-BP) to recover the anisotropic scene. Compare to conventional backprojection based complex approximate message passing (CAMP-BP) algorithm for the recovery of isotropic scene, the proposed method accommodates aspect dependent scattering behavior better and can produce better imagery. Simulated and experimental results are presented to demonstrate the validity of the proposed algorithm.
The elevation image quality of tomographic synthetic aperture radar (TomoSAR) data depends mainly on the elevation aperture size, number of baselines, and baseline distribution. In TomoSAR, due to the restricted number of baselines with irregular distributions, the elevation imaging quality is always unacceptable using the conventional spectral analysis approach. Therefore, for a given limited number of irregular baselines, the completion of data for the unobserved virtual uniform baseline distribution should be addressed to improve the spectral analysis-based TomoSAR reconstruction quality. We propose an Lq(0
