Description

Method and system for designing large-breadth mode of satellite-borne SAR based on load and attitude coordination
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of aerospace systems, in particular to a method and a system for designing a large-breadth mode of a satellite-borne SAR based on load and attitude coordination.
Background
The spaceborne synthetic aperture radar is an all-weather active earth observation means in all days, and plays an important role in the fields of high-resolution observation, natural resource monitoring, ocean monitoring and the like. With the development of application requirements of the spaceborne SAR, low-cost and lightweight SAR satellites have become development hot spots of the spaceborne SAR system. In the aspect of the requirement of a satellite-borne SAR satellite, the load large-breadth imaging mode has important significance for meeting the accurate observation requirement of large area and wide coverage. The SAR satellite adopting the parabolic antenna system realizes the weight reduction and low cost of the satellite, but cannot realize the large-breadth imaging of the load due to the limited electric wave beam scanning capability; the SAR satellite adopting the two-dimensional plane phased array antenna system can realize the load large-breadth imaging through a distance to an electric wave beam ScanSAR scanning mode, but the ScanSAR scanning mode often reduces the azimuth resolution at the cost of wide observation band width. Meanwhile, the two-dimensional plane phased array antenna system SAR satellite needs a large number of T/R components in the two-dimensional direction of the antenna, and the T/R components greatly increase the weight, the power consumption, the cost and the engineering development difficulty of the whole satellite.
Through searching, although a plurality of patents and papers exist in China on the research of a large-breadth mode method of a satellite-borne SAR, the method is essentially different from the method in design, and the specific conditions are as follows:
the method uses a parabolic antenna to save the manufacturing cost of the spaceborne SAR antenna, but has smaller range imaging width due to the limitation of the electric scanning capability of the parabolic antenna.
The research institute Feng Fan of space radio technology in western ampere and the like invents an on-orbit implementation design method of a parabolic satellite-borne SAR mosaic mode, and patent application No. 202010752732.1 provides a mosaic mode design method aiming at an SAR satellite of a parabolic antenna system.
The foreign terra SAR-X satellite scanning mode is realized by adopting a traditional ScanSAR mode (article name: terra SAR-X Image Product Guide), wherein the resolution is designed to be 16m, and the range-wise breadth is designed to be 100km. If the resolution is kept unchanged according to the design method of the application, the range width can reach 300km; the narrow scanning mode and the wide scanning mode of the high-resolution third satellite in China are realized by adopting a traditional ScanSAR mode (the article name is that the high-resolution third satellite is designed to be 50m and the range-wise breadth is designed to be 300 km). If the resolution is kept unchanged according to the design method of the application, the range-wise width can reach 900km.
Therefore, a new solution is needed to improve the above technical problems.
