<![CDATA[Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is an imaging system based on the processing of radar echoes. The produced images have a huge amount of data which will be stored onboard or transmitted as a digital signal to the ground station via downlink to be processed. Therefore, some methods of compression on the raw images provides an attractive option for SAR systems design. One of these techniques which used for image reconstruction is the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP). OMP is an iterative algorithm which need high computational operations. The computational complexity of the iterative algorithms is high due to updating operations of the measurement vector and large number of iterations that are used to reconstruct the images successfully. This paper presents a new adaptive OMP algorithm to overcome this issue by using certain threshold. The new adaptive OMP algorithm is compared with the classical OMP algorithm using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The MATLAB simulations show that the new adaptive OMP algorithm improves the probability of detection at lower SNRs, reduce the computational operations as well as the number of required iterations. FPGA implementation of both the classical OMP and the adaptive OMP algorithm are also presented in this paper.]]>
