Photonics-based 3D radar imaging with CNN-assisted fast and noise-resistant image construction.

Photonics-based high-resolution 3D radar imaging is demonstrated in which a convolutional neural network (CNN)-assisted back projection (BP) imaging method is applied to implement fast and noise-resistant image construction. The proposed system uses a 2D radar array with each element being a broadband radar transceiver realized by microwave photonic frequency multiplication and mixing. The CNN-assisted BP image construction is achieved by mapping low-resolution images to high-resolution images with a pre-trained 3D CNN, which greatly reduces the computational complexity and enhances the imaging speed compared with basic BP image construction. Besides, using noise-free or low-noise ground truth images for training the CNN, the CNN-assisted BP imaging method can suppress the noises, which helps to generate high-quality images. In the experiment, 3D radar imaging with a K-band photonics-based radar having a bandwidth of 8 GHz is performed, in which the imaging speed is enhanced by a factor of ∼55.3 using the CNN-assisted BP imaging method. By comparing the peak signal to noise ratios (PSNR) of the generated images, the noise-resistant capability of the CNN-assisted BP method is soundly verified.
