摘要
High-resolution three-dimensional (3D) images can be acquired by the planar Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) array radar making future work like detection and tracking easier. However, regarding portability and to save the costs of radar system, MIMO radar array adopts sparse type with limited number of antennas, so the imaging performance of a MIMO radar system is limited. In this paper, the 3D back projection imaging algorithm is verified by the experimental results of planar MIMO array for human body and an enhanced radar imaging method is proposed. The Lucy-Richardson (LR) algorithm based on deconvolution that is normally used for optical images is applied in radar images. Since the LR algorithm can amplify the noise level in a noise-contaminated system, a regularization method based on the Total Variation constraint is further incorporated in the LR algorithm to suppress the ill-posed characteristics. The proposed method shows a higher image Signal-to-Noise Ratio, a faster rate of convergence, a higher structure similarity and a smaller relative error compared to some similar methods. In the meantime, it also reduces the loss of image information after image enhancement and improves the radar image quality (get less grating lobe and clearer human limbs). The proposed method overcomes the disadvantages mentioned above and is verified by simulation experiment and real data measurement.
