Low-bit quantization of echo improves storage and leads to more efficient downlink transmission of spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems. In this paper, a new parametric quantized iterative hard thresholding (PQIHT) algorithm is proposed to refocus the images of moving targets with low-bit quantized SAR data, based on the combination of quantized iterative hard thresholding (QIHT) and the parametric sparse representation. The blurred and quantization-error-involved subimage of the region of interest (ROI) containing the moving target is represented in a sparse fashion through an adaptive parametric dictionary. The QIHT with a pruned searching method is performed for efficiently estimating the motion-adaptive parameter inside the dictionary, refocusing the ROI image and suppressing the quantization-induced error in an iterative way. Different from the conventional QIHT algorithm with a fixed dictionary that can only represent stationary targets, the proposed method exploits a parametric dictionary with a parameter related to target motion status, which is capable of adaptively representing the radar echo from a moving target with unknown motion status and, therefore, is suitable for moving target refocusing. Simulations and experiments on real GF-3 satellite SAR data demonstrate that, compared with the conventional parametric sparse representation framework for moving target refocusing based on purely precise data, the proposed algorithm can provide satisfactory quality of moving target refocusing with remarkably reduced data volume.
