Abstract-Many traditional sparse signal recovery based ISAR imaging methods did not utilize the block scatterers information of targets. Some block Bayesian learning based ISAR imaging algorithms are computational expensive. In this paper, a 2D block 1 0 norms homotopy sparse signal recovery algorithm (the BL1L0 algorithm) is proposed and utilized to form the ISAR image. Compared with Bayesian-based algorithms, this algorithm can obtain ISAR images with similar image quality, but the computation speed is faster. Real data experiments verify the merits of our algorithm.
