A Novel Algorithm for Estimating the Rotation Angle in ISAR Imaging

Abstract

<para xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> A novel algorithm for estimating the rotation angle in inverse synthetic aperture radar imaging by generally considering the received signals as cubic phase signals is presented. The rotation angle is determined by the coefficients of the cubic phase signals, and the results of real data demonstrate the validity of the algorithm. </para>
