This paper presents a fast factorized back-projection (FFBP) algorithm that can satisfactorily process real P-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data collected from a spiral flight pattern performed by a drone-borne SAR system. Choosing the best setup when processing SAR data with an FFBP algorithm is not so straightforward, so predicting how this choice will affect the quality of the output image is valuable information. This paper provides a statistical phase error analysis to validate the hypothesis that the phase error standard deviation can be predicted by geometric parameters specified at the start of processing. In particular, for a phase error standard deviation of ~12°, the FFBP is up to 21 times faster than the direct back-projection algorithm for 3D images and up to 13 times faster for 2D images.

Novel frequency domain extracted method (FDEM) to obtain high range resolution profile (HRRP) for frequency stepped synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is proposed in this paper, and the mathematical principle and formulas of this new HRRP obtaining idea combined with classical fast Fourier transform (FFT), chirp z transform (CZT), and single point Fourier transform (SPFT) are deduced, analyzed, and compared in detail. Based on the HRRP data, precision imaging processing is completed using a data block partition based fast factorized back projection algorithm. Imaging validations are executed and all results proved that the FDEM has a great capability of antijamming. It is more effective than conventional time domain IFFT method (TDM) and shows a great promise in frequency stepped radar imaging and applications.
