Deep Bayesian Optimization of Sparse Aperture for Compressed Sensing 3D ISAR Imaging

Le résumé fourni par la source

High-resolution three-dimensional (3D) Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) imaging is essential for the characterization of target scattering in various environments. The practical application of this technique is frequently impeded by the lengthy measurement time necessary for comprehensive data acquisition with turntable-based systems. Sub-sampling the aperture can decrease acquisition time; however, traditional reconstruction algorithms that utilize matched filtering exhibit significantly impaired imaging performance, often characterized by a high peak side-lobe ratio. A methodology is proposed that integrates compressed sensing(CS) theory with sparse-aperture optimization to achieve high-fidelity 3D imaging from sparsely sampled data. An optimized sparse sampling aperture is introduced to systematically balance the engineering requirement for efficient, continuous turntable motion with the low mutual coherence desired for the CS matrix. A deep Bayesian optimization framework was developed to automatically identify physically realizable optimal sampling trajectories, ensuring that the sensing matrix retains the necessary properties for accurate signal recovery. This method effectively addresses the high-sidelobe problem associated with traditional sparse techniques, significantly decreasing measurement duration while maintaining image quality. Quantitative experimental results indicate the method’s efficacy: the optimized sparse aperture decreases the number of angular sampling points by roughly 84% compared to a full acquisition, while reconstructing images with a high correlation coefficient of 0.98 to the fully sampled reference. The methodology provides an effective solution for rapid, high-performance 3D ISAR imaging, achieving an optimal balance between data acquisition efficiency and reconstruction fidelity.
