Micro-Doppler Reconstruction in Spaceborne SAR Images Using Azimuth Time–Frequency Tracking of the Phase History

Résumé

This letter proposes a micro-Doppler (m-D) reconstruction method for spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images using azimuth time-frequency tracking of the phase history. The algorithm involves an azimuth defocusing of the SAR image in order to gain access to the phase history, followed by a time-frequency tracking algorithm. The tracking in azimuth is based on local polynomial phase modeling using as estimator for the polynomial coefficients the high-order ambiguity function. The approach is presented in the context of vibration estimation for infrastructure monitoring applications, with an emphasis on the estimation of vibration parameters from the reconstructed m-D. The procedure is tested and compared with state-of-the-art methods by various simulation scenarios in keeping with typical high-resolution SAR imaging parameters. Finally, the developed algorithm is applied on real data acquired by the TerraSAR-X satellite over the Puylaurent water dam in France.
