Problems solved by technology

[0005] At present, the ML method has not been applied to the parameter estimation of sky-wave radar maneuvering targets, and the traditional ML algorithm needs to perform matrix inversion operation, which increases the complexity of the operation, and in the case of a singular matrix, the inversion result will be inaccurate

Abstract

The invention discloses an improved ML (maximum likelihood) skywave radar maneuvering target parameter estimation method and belongs to the radar communication technical field. According to the method, the maneuvering target signals of a skywave radar are modeled into a generalized phase polynomial; and a received signal likelihood function is maximized, so that the parameter estimation of a maneuvering target can be realized. In order to avoid matrix inversion computation in a traditional likelihood function, the maximization problem of the likelihood function is converted into the optimization problem of overdetermination nonlinear least square estimation, so that high-precision maneuvering target parameter estimation under a low signal to noise ratio can be realized. Compared with a traditional maneuvering target parameter estimation algorithm, the method of the invention can not only achieve higher-accuracy parameter estimation under a lower signal to noise ratio, but also can estimate the motion parameters of a plurality of maneuvering targets simultaneously.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of communication radar, in particular to a method for estimating parameters of maneuvering targets of sky-wave radar with low input signal-to-noise ratio and high precision. Background technique [0002] Sky-wave over-the-horizon radar (OTHR, over-the-horizon radar) uses the ionosphere's reflection of high-frequency electromagnetic waves to detect targets from top to bottom, so as to achieve over-the-horizon detection of ships, aircraft and other targets. However, due to the long working distance and complex working environment of sky-wave radar rays, the signal attenuation is serious during the transmission process, and the target energy is often weak, which is not conducive to target detection. In addition, in order to obtain high Doppler resolution, sky-wave radar usually adopts a long coherent integration time (CIT, coherent integration time), and the coherent integration time is generally as long as ten...
