Abstract
- The millimeter-wave frequency-diverse imaging regime has recently received considerable attention in both the security screening and synthetic aperture radar imaging literature. Considering that the minor systematic errors and alignment errors could still produce heavily corrupted images, these complex-based imaging reconstructions rely heavily on the precise measurement of both phase and amplitude of radiation field patterns and echo signals. In the literature, it is shown that by leveraging phase-retrieval techniques, salient reconstruction images can still be acquired, even in the presence of significant phase errors, which could ease the phase error calibration pressure to a large extent in practical imaging applications. In this paper, in the regime of phaseless frequency-diverse imaging, with the powerful feature inference and generation power of unsupervised generative models, an end-to-end deep prior generative neural network is designed to achieve near real-time imaging. The harsh imaging reconstruction with both the high radiation mode correlations and extremely low scene compression sampling ratio, which are extremely troublesome to tackle for generally applied matched-filter and compressed sensing approach in the current frequency-diverse imaging literature, can still be preferably handled with our reconstruction network. The well-trained reconstruction network is constituted by prior inference and deep generative modules with excellent generative capabilities and significant prior inference abilities. Using simulation experiments with radiation field data, we verify that the integration of phase-free frequency-change imaging with deep learning networks can effectively improve reconstruction capabilities and improve robustness to systematic phase errors. Compared with existing imaging methods, our imaging method has high imaging performance and can even reconstruct targets under low compression ratio conditions, which is somewhat competitive with current state-of-the-art algorithms. Moreover, we find that the proposed method has good anti-noise and stability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
