This paper presents a new scheme to transform the side-looking returns to squint ones, in a direct and an indirect approach respectively. Direct transformation uses the data with a wide azimuth beam angle. The maximum of the required squint angle is limited under several degrees. Squint data under indirect transformation can be obtained by adding a platform velocity along slant range according to the required squint angles. Then the squint data is determined by the angle between the new forward velocity and line-of-sight direction. This method results in higher squint angle compared with the first one. Verification shows the feasibility of these approaches with illustration of side-looking E-SAR raw data processing. The future work will be on the precise Doppler centroid estimation and effective imaging algorithm development.展开更多

Usually the wide-angle echo data are processed with common-depth-point stack method to obtain the stacked section for gcological interpretation. When the acoustic velocity of the sedimentary layers has a lateral variation, the stacked section does not represent the real structure of sedimentary layers. Based on this stacked section, we would probably draw a false conclusion.In case of knowing the acoustic velocity of sedimentary beds, we may remove the distortions caused by acoustic velocity lateral variations from the stacked section with acoustie wave equation Kirchhoff integration which continues the wave fields in downgoing and upgoing directions respectively. Thus the accurate image of the structure of submarine sedimentary layers is obtained.展开更多

The equation which describes the wave propagation is used for backward extrapolation of echo data observed at sea surface. When the medium is homogeneous or horizontally layered, time imaging approach is valid. However, in the case where a considerable lateral variation in velocity exists, the image section processed with the time approach does not represent the real structure, because of distortions caused by thin-lens effect similar as in optics. In this case, depth imaging approach must be used for both the time-shift correction of refraction terms and the convergence of diffractions simultaneously as wavefields are downward continued. As a result, the good image can be derived to determine the structure of sea-bed sediment layers.展开更多
