The technique of azimuth multichannel synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system has become a potential solution to the irreconcilable conflict between high-resolution and wide-swath (HRWS) confronted with in a traditional SAR system. Unambiguous imaging, especially for a scene with moving targets, is one of the crucial research topics in the HRWS SAR system. This paper proposes a simultaneous imaging scheme of moving targets and stationary clutter for maritime scenarios. First, the moving target echoes are extracted from the stationary clutter. After that, two methods working in completely different principles are used to estimate the radial velocity of each moving target, and the estimated result is used for phase compensation. After that, the moving target echoes are added back to the stationary scene echo and sent to the reconstruction filter. Lastly, the reconstructed echo can be processed by the classical Chirp Scaling (CS) algorithm. Experiments are carried out using the Chinese GaoFen-3 dual-channel data. The estimated velocities of the moving targets are verified by automatic identification service (AIS) information, and the imaging results show that the false targets are effectively suppressed and the moving targets also return to their correct positions along the azimuth.
