Abstract
During the signal acquisition for synthetic aperture imaging ladar, any phase error will deteriorate the phase-matched filtering results. The phase differential algorithm (PDA) is presented to correct the phase error. The quadratic spatial phase history can be reconstructed from the phase information submerged by the phase error from platform line-of-sight translation–vibration and nonlinear chirp. The theoretical modeling results and experimental results are presented.
