• Abstract: The electromagnetic inverse problem has long been a research hotspot. This study aims to reverse radar view angles in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images given a target model. Nonetheless, the scarcity of SAR data, combined with the intricate background interference and imaging mechanisms, limit the applications of existing learning-based approaches. To address these challenges, we propose an interactive deep reinforcement learning (DRL) framework, where an electromagnetic simulator named differentiable SAR render (DSR) is embedded to facilitate the interaction between the agent and the environment, simulating a human-like process of angle prediction. Specifically, DSR generates SAR images at arbitrary view angles in real-time. And the differences in sequential and semantic aspects between the view angle-corresponding images are leveraged to construct the state space in DRL, which effectively suppress the complex background interference, enhance the sensitivity to temporal variations, and improve the capability to capture fine-grained information. Additionally, in order to maintain the stability and convergence of our method, a series of reward mechanisms, such as memory difference, smoothing and boundary penalty, are utilized to form the final reward function. Extensive experiments performed on both simulated and real datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of our proposed method. When utilized in the cross-domain area, the proposed method greatly mitigates inconsistency between simulated and real domains, outperforming reference methods significantly.

  Near-field synthetic aperture radar (SAR) provides a high-resolution image of a target's scattering distribution-hot spots. Meanwhile, imaging result suffers inevitable degradation from sidelobes, clutters, and noises. To restore the image, current methods make simplified assumptions; for example, the point spread function (PSF) is spatially consistent, the target consists of sparse point scatters, etc. We reformulate the degradation model into a spatially variable complex-convolution model, where the near-field SAR's system response is considered. A model-based deep learning network is designed to restore the
