The circular synthetic aperture radar (SAR) can observe the experimental scene from all angles. The backscatter intensity of the target in the scene can be obtained. Different targets in the imaging scene show different amplitude characteristics. For example, significant targets such as buildings and oil tanks show strong response characteristics at certain angles, and secondly, weak response characteristics for targets is shown such as grass and ground. In this article, the omnidirectional scattering intensity data of the target obtained from the radar is used to analyze the amplitude characteristics, and the model is established for different targets to obtain the final result. The fuzzy C-means (FCM) model combined with neighborhood information is used to analyze the target amplitude characteristics. The amplitude characteristics of the target are divided into two categories: strong response and weak response for analysis. The initial two types of cluster centers are set for iteration and finally the target amplitude characteristic reference values at different angles are obtained. C-band circular SAR data is used to validate our method. As a result, the amplitude characteristics of the whole scene using membership degree can be described.

Compressed sensing technique is widely used in the field of multiple input multiple output (MIMO) radar imaging to suppress sidelobes and noise, bringing better imaging performance. However, many constraints are introduced to the sparse reconstruction model, current sparse microwave imaging model is based on several assumptions, such as far field assumption, which might not hold in some circumstances. In this paper, a novel two-dimensional sparse reconstruction method based on approximated observation is proposed. First, we obtain the measurement matrix by the inverse back-projection operator, and construct a two-dimensional sparse reconstruction model. Then, we adopt the minimax concave constraint as the regularization term and use the iterative soft threshold algorithm (ISTA) for sparse reconstruction. The method retains the advantages of the BP algorithm and the sparse reconstruction algorithm at the same time, and the distance between the target and the antenna array is not constrained by image reconstruction performance of the sparse reconstruction algorithm. Simulations and experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

360-degree/omnidirectional images (OIs) have achieved remarkable attentions due to the increasing applications of virtual reality (VR). Compared to conventional 2D images, OIs can provide more immersive experience to consumers, benefitting from the higher resolution and plentiful field of views (FoVs). Moreover, observing OIs is usually in the head mounted display (HMD) without references. Therefore, an efficient blind quality assessment method, which is specifically designed for 360-degree images, is urgently desired. In this paper, motivated by the characteristics of the human visual system (HVS) and the viewing process of VR visual contents, we propose a novel and effective no-reference omnidirectional image quality assessment (NR OIQA) algorithm by Multi-Frequency information and Local-Global Naturalness (MFILGN). Specifically, inspired by the frequency-dependent property of visual cortex, we first decompose the projected equirectangular projection (ERP) maps into wavelet subbands by using discrete Haar wavelet transform (DHWT). Then, the entropy intensities of low-frequency and high-frequency subbands are exploited to measure the multi-frequency information of OIs. Besides, except for considering the global naturalness of ERP maps, owing to the browsed FoVs, we extract the natural scene statistics (NSS) features from each viewport image as the measure of local naturalness. With the proposed multi-frequency information measurement and local-global naturalness measurement, we utilize support vector regression (SVR) as the final image quality regressor to train the quality evaluation model from visual quality-related features to human ratings. To our knowledge, the proposed model is the first no-reference quality assessment method for 360-degreee images that combines multi-frequency information and image naturalness. Experimental results on two publicly available OIQA databases demonstrate that our proposed MFILGN outperforms state-of-the-art full-reference (FR) a

For moving targets in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images, the obvious features are defocusing and dislocation. To estimate motion parameters accurately is a premise for the precise imaging of moving targets. However, when the radial velocity of the target exceeds the maximum detectable unambiguous velocity, the estimated value by the existing methods is no longer the real value. A radial velocity ambiguity resolution method based on Imaging Space-Time Adaptive processing (ISTAP) is proposed in this paper. The proposed method has no search or iterative process and is suitable for the azimuth multichannel SAR with low pulse repetition frequency (PRF). Finally, the simulated data from an x-band azimuth six-channel SAR system verify the feasibility of the proposed method.
