High-Resolution Microwave Imaging

Abstract

Super-resolution imaging algorithms use high-resolution spectrum estimation method, effective spectrum extrapolation method, adaptive weighted method, or inverse problem-solving method to process microwave imaging radar data. These kinds of algorithms can break through the performance limitations of Fourier imaging method to improve image resolution further without increasing the signal bandwidth and the length of the synthetic aperture.
