Abstract Considering the contradiction between the azimuth resolution and the swath width for the traditional SAR, a MIMO SAR system with multiple-carrier-frequency LFM waveform is researched. The corresponding geometrical?model is built, and the expressions of the echo signals are derived in detail. A novel imaging algorithm based on the sub-band synthetic technology in frequency domain is proposed. This algorithm which integrates the removing of azimuth ambiguities, the synthesis of the sub-band and the CS imaging can realize 2-D high resolution and wide swath simultaneously. And the improved sub-band synthetic algorithm has more efficiency and practicality than the traditional sub-band synthetic algorithms in time frequency domain. The effectiveness of this method is verified with the theoretical analysis and the computer-based simulations.
