Fast Batch-Based Iterative Adaptive Approach For Scanning Radar Super-Resolution Imaging

In recent years, iterative adaptive approach (IAA) has been proposed for super-resolution imaging in scanning radar, providing improved azimuth resolution. Traditional IAA involves computing the correlation matrix R for target scattering in each range cell, leading to iterative row-by-row solving and matrix inversion operations, causing high computational complexity. To this end, this paper proposes a Fast Batch-Based Iterative Adaptive Approach (FBB-IAA) that enables parallel and synchronized super-resolution processing of each range cell in the echo matrix. Additionally, it utilizes the two-dimensional conjugate gradient (2D-CG) method to avoid matrix inversion operation, significantly reducing the computational complexity compared to traditional IAA. Simulation results validate the superiority of the proposed method.
