The trajectory-crossing method is an important and effective method for spaceborne SAR (synthetic aperture radar) to detect a two-dimensional current field. However, in practical applications, there are few spaceborne SAR data that meet the requirements of close acquisition time and overlapping trajectories, which makes it difficult to comprehensively analyze the impact of different systems and environmental parameters on current measurement results from real data processing. With the proposal of a SAR constellation plan in the future, the data resources will be constantly enriched, and the trajectory-crossing method will be widely used. It is, thus, necessary to lay some theoretical foundation at present. A two-dimensional sea-surface-current-field simulation method for trajectory crossing spaceborne SAR is proposed in this paper. Based on the principles of the trajectory-crossing method, the proposed method can realize the simulation of two-dimensional sea-surface-current field under given spaceborne SAR system and environmental parameters. In this paper, the simulation process of this method is given, and the simulation experiment is performed. Compared with the current measurement results of SAR data, the simulation experiment shows that the current velocity error is less than 0.03 m/s and the direction error is less than 10 degrees, which proves the reliability of the proposed simulation method. The proposed method lays a foundation for analyzing the influence of various parameters in the application of the trajectory-crossing method. |
