As a difficulty and focus in the field of radar imaging, radar forward-looking imaging has broad application prospects in automatic driving, navigation, precision guidance and so on. The traditional forward-looking imaging algorithm is limited by the width of the antenna aperture and cannot achieve high-resolution imaging. In this paper, CNN ( Convolutional Neural Networks ) neural network and LSTM ( Long Short-Term Memory ) neural network are combined to realize the prediction of azimuth in forward-looking imaging. Firstly, the convolution-like model of the scanning forward-looking imaging signal and its ill-posedness are introduced. The echo signal is preprocessed by pulse compression and range migration correction, and input into the CNN-LSTM neural network to perform azimuth estimation by range unit. The simulation results show that the algorithm can effectively improve the azimuth resolution of forward-looking imaging and realize the super-resolution of forward-looking imaging.
