Summary:An autofocusing technique is proposed, based on the modelling of
the instantaneous phase, induced by the relative radar/target motion, as
a generic order polynomial and on the estimation of the polynomial
coefficients by the so-called product high-order ambiguity function. The
proposed estimation method is able to deal with multicomponent signals
and is robust against model order mismatching, provided that the
selected order is greater than the true order. The proposed method is
compared with the phase gradient autofocusing method, and applications
are presented of focusing of extended scenes and detection and imaging
of moving targets
