Abstract
The squint side-looking imaging mode SAR has a squint angle at the side-looking direction. This imaging mode can obtain multi-resolution images of a same scene with the variation of squint angle. But the imaging mode has to overcome three problems: (1) compensate the large range walk and curve; (2) develop a mapping technique that works even when the size, shape, and orientation of a resolution cell varies; and (3) fuse the different resolution images to obtain the best imaging results and the most messages of the imaging terrain. The paper analysis and present an imaging schedule including imaging algorithm, geometry correction method and a fusion method of different resolution images.
