Abstract :
This paper introduces a high resolution imaging method, which is based on hybrid sampling of the airborne MIMO radar, combined the single snapshot of MIMO radar with the synthetic aperture of SAR. The method represents an equivalent array algorithm that the PRF of the system can be reduced dramatically to the conventional SAR, such that large unambiguity areas we can get. Numerical simulations are provided to examine the validity of the proposed method.
