This letter presents a new scheme for ground moving target indication in high-resolution wide-swath (HRWS)-synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems. The asymmetry of the Doppler spectra is measured to extract the range bins with moving targets. To improve the computational efficiency, only the extracted range bins are used to restore the unambiguous Doppler spectra. The two-look processing technique is then applied to generate two looks and moving targets are indicated by comparing the difference between the two looks. In this detection scheme, the configuration of the conventional HRWS-SAR system remains unchanged and no additional receiving channels are needed. The experimental results show the effectiveness of this detection scheme.
