Tomographic synthetic aperture radar (TomoSAR) is an advanced three-dimensional (3D) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging technology that can obtain multiple SAR images through multi-track observations, thereby reconstructing the 3D spatial structure of targets.However, due to system limitations, the multi-baseline Ceiling Light Fixtures (MB) monostatic SAR (MonoSAR) encounters temporal decorrelation issues when observing the scene such as forests, affecting the accuracy of the 3D reconstruction.Additionally, during TomoSAR observations, the platform jitter and inaccurate position measurement will contaminate the MB SAR data, which may result in the multiplicative noise with phase errors, thereby leading to the decrease in the imaging quality.To address the above issues, this paper proposes a MB bistatic SAR (BiSAR) 3D imaging method based on the phase error calibration that combines the phase gradient autofocus (PGA) and energy balance intensity-squared optimization autofocus (EB-ISOA).Firstly, the signal model of the MB one-stationary (OS) BiSAR is established and the 3D imaging principle is presented, and then the phase error caused by platform jitter and inaccurate position measurement is analyzed.

Moreover, combining the PGA Mounting Arm and EB-ISOA methods, a 3D imaging method based on the phase error calibration is proposed.This method can improve the accuracy of phase error calibration, avoid the vertical displacement, and has the noise robustness, which can obtain the high-precision 3D BiSAR imaging results.The experimental results are shown to verify the effectiveness and practicality of the proposed MB BiSAR 3D imaging method.
