Abstract

In the airborne SAR system, the echo signal is modulated by the moving target\´s velocity and acceleration. A method based on the fractional Fourier transform and "clean " technique to detect multi moving targets is presented, and a fast auto-search algorithm is proposed. The results of simulation proved the multi targets resolution of this method. It can eliminate the influence of cross terms in time-frequency domain and identify the multi targets correctly as the detection SNR below -8 dB.
