摘要
The array antenna SAR is able to realize the three dimensional imaging. In order to improve the imaging quality, the measurement equipment is adopted to acquire the motion information of the array antenna's platform for the motion compensation. However, the measurement error may impact the quality of compensation and imaging. Therefore analysis of the impact is indispensable. This paper establishes the imaging model and the measurement error analysis model, analyses the impact on phase error from the aspect of position and angle measurement error respectively, compares the impact of measurement error in the different directions, analyses the impact on imaging index by the simulation, and introduces the idea of angle-error-array-length-ratio to quantify the impact of angle error. The conclusion that the measurement error in the height and roll angle has the biggest impact is proposed and the error tolerance in certain conditions is given at last, which provides the theoretical guidance and reference for the choice and design of the measurement equipment and the motion compensation method. ©, 2015, Science Press.
