Abstract
We propose a new step imaging method based on astigmatism Fourier transform for synthetic-aperture ladar imaging processor, which is mainly used in optical imaging processing system of synthetic-aperture imaging ladar. The time-domain data is translated into spatial coordinate expression suitable for space optical conversion. The Fourier transform is realized by astigmatism principle. It can simultaneously achieve radar goals focusing both on distance and azimuth. Processor scale is effectively reduced. The process of target echo confocal imaging data is simplified. The requirements of ladar imaging processing system are reduced. It has a great advantage in the synthetic-aperture imaging ladar target echo confocal imaging data processing.
