  • Circular SAR (CSAR) has the ability of 3-D imaging due to its special curve trajectory. Single-pass CSAR can theoretically obtain the resolution of the sub-wavelength level on the distance-azimuth plane, but its resolution at the elevation direction is very low. At the same time, CSAR 3-D imaging with Back Projection(BP) has high algorithm complexity and low imaging efficiency. A coherent 3-D imaging method for multi-circular SAR based on an improved 3-D back projection algorithm is proposed. For the problem of high time complexity of the imaging algorithm, an improved 3-D BP algorithm for CSAR based on constructing geometric interpolation kernel is proposed. 3-D interpolation operations are transformed into 1-D interpolation operations and distance vector searching operations. The final imaging result is obtained by coherently accumulating the improved 3-D BP results of multi-circular SAR. The proposed method solves effectively the problem of low elevation resolution of single-pass CSAR, improves 3-D imaging details, and reduces greatly the time of CSAR 3-D imaging simultaneously. The simulated 3-D imaging results of the conical target and GOTCHA data set from the US Air Force Laboratory verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
