Real-time radial velocity estimation is a key challenge for moving target imaging and location in current single-antenna synthetic aperture radar (SAR)-ground moving target indication systems. Since the conventional methods suffer from ambiguity, complexity realization, or heavy computation load for fast moving target motion estimation, this paper emphasizes the estimation efficiency by simple realization. An efficient Radon transform (RT) estimation is proposed to estimate the radial velocity of fast moving target by utilizing the geometry information, and much more geometry information is exploited to realize clutter cancellation, noise cancellation, and estimation error minimizing in the RT domain, which is not proposed by the others. With only two to four angles used to calculate rather than search for the radial velocity of moving targets, the proposed methods simplify the conventional range and angle (2-D) searching procedure into several time range (1-D) searching procedure efficiently. The theoretical and experimental analysis provides qualitative and quantitative evaluations into the effectiveness of the proposed methods. In the single-antenna SAR system, the proposed methods can estimate the radial velocity of fast moving target efficiently and accurately in high signal to clutter plus noise ratio scenarios.
