Abstract

The simulation of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image is of great significance to the analysis and interpretation of target scattering characteristics. High frequency approximation techniques combined with ray tracing is a very suitable method for SAR image simulation. Compared with the numerical methods, they can calculate the scattered field of electrically large targets in a short period of time. However, both the ray tracing process and SAR's unique pulse accumulation process result in a very long calculation time. Using CPU+GPU parallel computing technology, a SAR image acceleration simulation algorithm based on high frequency approximation techniques is designed in this paper. Both CPU and GPU parallel computing techniques are used to accelerate the time-consuming process of SAR simulation. The experimental results show that the simulated SAR image can be obtained in a shorter time by parallel acceleration of CPU+GPU.
