A New Motion Parameter Estimation Algorithm Based on SDFC-LVT

This paper proposes a new motion parameter estimation algorithm, namely subband dual-frequency conjugate-Lv's transform, for fast moving targets. This algorithm first constructs two subband signals with different central frequencies. Then, the two signals are shifted by different values and a new signal is constructed by multiplying one with the complex conjugate of the other. Finally, Keystone transform and LVT are performed to obtain the estimates. This method does not need any prior-knowledge of targets and can resolve the Doppler ambiguity problem when Keystone transform does not work, especially when the ambiguity number splits into two numbers. Both simulated and real data demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
