The multichannel synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system can effectively overcome the fundamental limitation between high-resolution and wide-swath. However, the unavoidable channel errors will result in a mismatch of the reconstruction filter and false targets in pairs. To address this issue, a novel channel errors calibration method is proposed based on the idea of minimizing the mean square error (MMSE) between the signal subspace and the space spanned by the practical steering vectors. The practical steering matrix of each Doppler bin can be constructed according to the Doppler spectrum. Compared with the time-domain correlation method, the proposed method no longer depends on the accuracy of the Doppler centroid estimation. Besides, compared with the orthogonal subspace method, the proposed method has the advantage of robustness under the condition of large samples by using the diagonal loading technique. To evaluate the performance, the results of simulation data and the real data acquired by the GF-3 dual-channel SAR system demonstrate that the proposed method has higher accuracy and more robustness than the conventional methods, especially in the case of low SNRs and high non-uniformity.
