This study introduces a generative learning imaging framework (GLIm) for millimeter wave (mmWave) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging. GLIm reconstructs high-quality SAR images from sparse data, reducing costs and improving efficiency.

Area of Science:

Radar Imaging
Signal Processing

Background:

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image reconstruction from incomplete data is crucial for system simplification and cost reduction.
Deep learning approaches show promise for SAR imaging but face challenges in network design, initialization, and dataset construction.
Millimeter wave (mmWave) SAR systems require efficient imaging techniques for sparsely sampled scenarios.

Purpose of the Study:

To propose a novel generative learning imaging framework (GLIm) for mmWave SAR imaging.
To address the practical deployment challenges of deep learning in SAR imaging.
To enable accurate SAR image reconstruction from sparsely sampled echo measurements.

Main Methods:

A generative learning imaging framework (GLIm) is proposed, utilizing a specifically designed SAR image generator.

The generator maps low-dimensional random noise to the scattering domain to create target images.

The generator is trained using a compound loss function with incomplete echo measurements as the supervised signal, employing online learning through numerical propagation.

Main Results:

The proposed GLIm framework demonstrated viability in reconstructing mmWave SAR images from sparse data.
Experiments with both simulated and real-measured data confirmed the framework's effectiveness.
Numerical and visual results validated the accuracy and efficiency of the GLIm approach.

Conclusions:

The generative learning imaging framework (GLIm) offers a practical solution for mmWave SAR imaging in sparsely sampled scenarios.
GLIm overcomes limitations of traditional deep learning SAR imaging methods.
The proposed method successfully reconstructs high-quality SAR images from incomplete echo measurements, paving the way for simplified and cost-effective SAR systems.
