HSMC and TMC are usually adjacent, and the residual error of HSMC will reduce the accuracy of TMC. At the same time, under the condition of low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the accuracy of HSMC and TMC will also decrease, which brings challenges to high-quality ISAR imaging. Therefore, this paper proposes a joint ISAR motion compensation algorithm based on entropy minimization under low-SNR conditions. Firstly, the motion of the space target is analyzed, and the echo signal model is obtained. Then, the motion of the space target is modeled as a high-order polynomial, and a parameterized joint compensation model of high-speed motion and translational motion is established. Finally, taking the image entropy after joint motion compensation as the objective function, the red-tailed hawk\u2013Nelder\u2013Mead (RTH-NM) algorithm is used to estimate the target motion parameters, and the joint compensation is carried out. The experimental results of simulation data and real data verify the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed algorithm.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s24134332","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,3]],"date-time":"2024-07-03T12:28:48Z","timestamp":1720009728000},"page":"4332","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["A Novel Joint Motion Compensation Algorithm for ISAR Imaging Based on Entropy Minimization"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"24","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-6226-2820","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jishun","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School, Space Engineering University, Beijing 101416, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yasheng","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School, Space Engineering University, Beijing 101416, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Canbin","family":"Yin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School, Space Engineering University, Beijing 101416, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Can","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School, Space Engineering University, Beijing 101416, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-1950-8225","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pengju","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School, Space Engineering University, Beijing 101416, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jun","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School, Space Engineering University, Beijing 101416, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Zhu, X., Zhang, Y., Lu, W., Fang, Y., and He, J.
