First, the locations of targets are estimated by the transmitting-mode decomposition of the TR operator（DORT） method employing the signal subspace. Then, the TR multiple signal classification（TR-MUSIC）method employing the noise subspace is used in the estimated target area to get the superresolution imaging of targets. Two examples with homogeneous and inhomogeneous background mediums are considered, respectively. The results show that the proposed hybrid method has advantages in CPU time and memory cost because of the combination of rough and fine imaging.展开更多
