1. INTRODUCTION

Traditional radar utilizes Shannon-Nyquist theorem for high bandwidth signal sampling, which induces the complicated system.

Compressive sensing (CS) indicates that the compressible signal using a few measurements can be reconstructed by solving a convex optimization problem.

1. INTRODUCTION

The ability of distinguishing the adjacent targets in the range direction

Pulse compression radar Parallel frequency radar via compressive sensing

5. CONCLUSION

This presentation introduces parallel frequency radar and imaging approach based on compressive sensing.

The novel radar can reduce data rate and maintain range resolution with the premise of the appropriate parameters.

The measurement matrix F is composed of the priori phases. The observation scene is reconstructed by OMP.

5. CONCLUSION

The imaging approach based on compressive sensing avoids side lobes of the range.

The noise in received signal is not taken into account in the simulations, it is not ignored in practice.

More researches are required on the capability resisting the noise interference of the signal processing based on compressive sensing in the future.
