Abstract
Obtaining precise position of interested emitters passively has wide applications in both civilian and military fields. Different from traditional parameter measurement and direct position determination (DPD) method, recently a new passive localization method based on synthetic aper-ture technique, named synthetic aperture positioning (SAP), has been proposed. The method com-pensates for the nonlinear phase produced by relative motion between the moving platform and the emitter, achieving coherent summation of intercepted signals. The SAP can obtain high-resolution and high-precision localization results at a low signal-to-noise ratio. This paper summarizes the research progress of SAP, including localization principles, spaceborne applications, and application scope analysis. Besides, the possible future outlook of SAP is considered.
