A Moving Target Deception Jamming Method Based on Fast Azimuth-Domain Block EM Calculation Against SAR-GMTI

This paper presents a novel moving target deception jamming method against synthetic aperture radar (SAR)-ground moving target indication (GMTI) based on fast azimuth-domain block EM calculation. In this method, a fast electromagnetic(EM) calculation based on equivalent bistatic scattered fields is used to simulate the scattering characteristics of moving false target, which greatly improves the computational efficiency. With the azimuth-domain block implementation, the jammer’s frequency response (JFR) can be calculated by fast searching and interpolating with EM database, and the computation load is further reduced. The implementation and the performance of the proposed method are discussed. Comparing with the traditional methods based on a point model, the proposed method is able to generate more verisimilar moving false targets for different attitudes and resolutions. The simulation experiments are provided to demonstrate the validity of the proposed method.
