Distance blur clutter suppression method based on pitch frequency diversity STAP

Abstract

The invention discloses a distance blur clutter suppression method based on pitch frequency diversity STAP. The method comprises the steps that down-conversion and matched filtering are sequentially carried out on a detected received signal to sequentially acquire the pitch-azimuth-time three-dimensional clutter snapshot model of each range gate, the pitch frequency expression of each range gate and the corresponding clutter compensation item; an appropriate clutter compensation item is used to separate distance blur clutters of different distance rings; due to the fact that pitch frequencies of different distance blur clutters are separated from each other, the distance blur clutter of each distance ring needs a filter with corresponding coefficients for filtering, and then all distance blur clutters are inhibited to solve the problem of distance blur; and finally, after the pitch distance blur clutters are separated, pitch frequency spectrum distribution and digital frequency periodicity are used to acquire the selection criteria of frequency increment. According to the invention, the freedom of a system and the operation complexity are not increased.

Problems solved by technology

[0004]The traditional space-time adaptive processing (STAP) algorithm generally adopts the method of adding fixed weights in the pitch dimension to synthesize the area array into a line array, and then in the azimuth dimension and time domain Adaptive processing in dimension to suppress clutter, that is, space-time two-dimensional adaptive signal processing (2D-STAP). Adding a fixed weight in the pitch direction will cause the clutter spectrum to spread, and it is difficult to completely eliminate the clutter with a large amount of distance ambiguity

[0005] On high-speed moving platforms such as airborne/spaceborne radars, in order to avoid severe Doppler ambiguity caused by Doppler frequency propagation, the actual space-time adaptive processing (STAP) algorithm usually adopts high pulse repetition frequency (HighPulseRepetitionFrequence, HPRF), high pulse repetiti...
