Popis: Scanning radar can be used to obtain images of targets in forward-looking area, and has attracted much attention in many fields, such as ocean monitoring, air-to-ground attack, navigation, and so on. However, its azimuth resolution is extremely poor due to the limitation of the antenna size. In order to break through the limitation, many superresolution algorithms have been proposed, and iterative shrinkage-thresholding algorithm (ISTA) is one of the most famous methods because of its antinoise ability and simplicity. In the meantime, the slow convergence of iterative shrinkage-thresholding algorithm is also known to all. In this article, a second-order accelerated ISTA for scanning radar forward-looking superresolution imaging is proposed. In this algorithm, a prediction vector is constructed before each iteration by using the first and the second-order difference information of iteration vectors to reduce the number of iterations and get a faster convergence speed. In the end, simulations and experimental results are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the accelerated imaging algorithm.
