Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of radar detection, and in particular to a radar detection method, device, equipment and medium in a multi-target environment. Background Art
[0002] Radar detection is a technology that uses radio waves to detect the position, speed and other characteristics of an object. Its full English name is Radio Detection and Ranging. Radar systems work by transmitting electromagnetic waves (usually microwaves) and then receiving the signals reflected from the target.
[0003] In a multi-target environment, the radar echo signal contains multiple target echo signals after FFT. Since the target signal strength is generally stronger than the noise or clutter signal. When estimating the background clutter power of a unit where a target to be detected is located, other target signals may be used as reference unit signals and used to estimate the background clutter power, which indirectly raises the reference signal strength for determining the threshold, resulting in an overestimation of the threshold of the detection unit. When the target signal strength of the detection unit is weaker than the estimated threshold, the target signal on the detection unit will be missed, and the detection probability of the radar system will decrease.

[0056] The embodiment of the present invention solves the technical problem in the prior art that radar is prone to missed detection in a multi-target environment by providing a radar detection method in a multi-target environment.
[0057] The technical solution of the present invention is to solve the above technical problems, and the overall idea is as follows:
[0058] A radar detection method in a multi-target environment, the method comprising: obtaining a target echo signal and performing FFT processing on the target echo signal, wherein the target echo signal is composed of a plurality of echo units; selecting M / 2 echo units on the left and right of the target echo unit as reference echo units, wherein M is a multiple of 2; for each reference echo unit, executing steps S31-S33, comprising: step S31, determining a signal amplitude mean square error estimate of the reference echo unit according to N / 2 echo units on the left and right of the reference echo unit, wherein N is a multiple of 2; step S32, determining a signal amplitude mean square error estimate of the reference echo unit according to the signal amplitude mean square error estimate of the reference echo unit Amplitude mean square error estimation and mean square error preset threshold are used to determine whether the reference echo unit needs to be eliminated; step S33, according to the signal amplitude mean square error estimation of several reference echo units that have not been eliminated, several reference echo units that have not been eliminated are sorted to obtain a first sequence; the second-order difference value of each reference echo unit in the first sequence is determined, and the reference echo unit corresponding to the smallest second-order difference value is used as the reference echo unit; in the first sequence, according to the signal power of the reference echo unit, the signal power of the echo unit before the reference echo unit and the preset zoom factor, it is determined whether the target echo unit contains the detection target.
[0059] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0060] First of all, the term "and / or" in this article is only a description of the association relationship of the associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.
[0061] When the radar transmits a pulse, an echo signal is formed when the pulse contacts a target (the target can be a moving object or a stationary object). When multiple target signals exist in one echo signal at the same time, the setting of the judgment condition will be affected by the mutual interference of the echo signals of the multiple targets, resulting in a decrease in the detection probability of the radar for multiple targets, which may lead to missed detection of targets. Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to reduce the missed detection probability and improve the detection capability of the radar in a multi-target environment.
[0062] The present invention provides Figure 1 A radar detection method in a multi-target environment is shown, comprising steps S11-S15.
[0063] Step S11, acquiring a target echo signal, and performing FFT processing on the target echo signal, wherein the target echo signal is composed of a plurality of echo units.
[0064] First, the pulse sent by the radar is reflected back after encountering the target to form an echo signal. The echo signal is captured by the receiver. The target echo signal contains information from different targets and background noise.
[0065] For each echo unit, the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm is used to convert the echo unit from the time domain to the frequency domain. FFT can effectively calculate the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) of a discrete time series, thereby revealing the hidden frequency components in the signal.
[0066] Step S12, selecting M / 2 echo units on the left and right of the target echo unit as reference echo units, wherein M is a multiple of 2.
[0067] The target echo unit refers to an echo unit to be detected among a plurality of echo units. Each echo unit in the target echo signal can be used as a target echo unit, and steps S12 to S15 are performed respectively.
[0068] The number of M can be set according to actual conditions and is not limited here.
[0069] like Figure 2 As shown, D is the target echo unit, and M / 2 echo units are selected on both sides of D for mean square error estimation.
[0070] Step S13, for each reference echo unit, executing steps S31-S33, including:
[0071] Step S31, determining a mean square error estimate of the signal amplitude of the reference echo unit according to N / 2 echo units to the left and right of the reference echo unit, wherein N is a multiple of 2.
[0072] Specifically include:
[0073]
[0074] in, For the The signal amplitude mean square error estimation of reference echo units, N is the The number of echo cells around the reference echo cell, For the The signal power of a reference echo unit, is the signal power mean of all reference echo units, and M is the number of echo units selected on the left and right of the target echo unit.
[0075] For example, in Figure 2 In the reference echo unit For the echo unit that currently needs signal amplitude mean square error estimation, select the reference echo unit The N / 2 echo units on the left and right are used for signal amplitude mean square error estimation.
[0076] According to the above method, for the M reference echo units corresponding to the target echo unit, the signal amplitude mean square error estimation of each reference echo unit is determined.
[0077] Step S32: determining whether the reference echo unit needs to be removed according to the mean square error estimation of the signal amplitude of the reference echo unit and a preset mean square error threshold.
[0078] Specifically include:
[0079] If the signal amplitude mean square error of the reference echo unit is greater than or equal to the preset mean square error threshold, it means that other target signals exist in the reference echo unit, and the reference echo unit can be eliminated.
[0080] If the signal amplitude mean square error of the reference echo unit is less than the preset mean square error threshold, it means that there is no other target signal in the reference echo unit, and the reference echo unit can be retained.
[0081] Step S33: sorting the plurality of reference echo units that have not been eliminated according to the mean square error estimation of the signal amplitudes of the plurality of reference echo units that have not been eliminated to obtain a first sequence.
[0082] Specifically, the method comprises: sorting the signal amplitude mean square error estimates of a plurality of reference echo units that have not been eliminated in a positive sequence to obtain a first sequence.
[0083] It can be understood that after the reference echo units are eliminated, it means that the number of reference echo units must be less than or equal to M. The reference echo units that are not eliminated are sorted from small to large according to the mean square error of the signal amplitudes to obtain a first sequence. The first sequence can be in the form of { , where L is the number of reference echo units that are not eliminated, Y is the number of reference echo units that are not eliminated, and .
[0084] Step S14, determining the second-order difference value of each reference echo unit in the first sequence, and taking the reference echo unit corresponding to the minimum second-order difference value as the reference echo unit.
[0085] For the remaining L reference echo units that have not been eliminated, the second-order difference value of each reference echo unit is determined, including:
[0086]
[0087] in, For the The second-order difference value of the reference echo unit.
[0088] Among the L reference echo units that are not eliminated, the reference echo unit with the smallest second-order difference value is used as the benchmark echo unit.
[0089] Step S15, in the first sequence, determining whether the target echo unit contains the detection target according to the signal power of the reference echo unit, the signal power of the echo unit before the reference echo unit, and the preset zoom factor.
[0090] After determining the reference echo unit, the sum of the signal power of the reference echo unit and the signal power of the echo unit before the reference echo unit is used as the reference signal power; the product between the reference signal power and the preset zoom factor is used as the signal power threshold;
[0091] include:
[0092]
[0093]
[0094] in, is the signal power threshold, is the zoom ratio, is the sum of the signal power of the reference echo unit and the signal power of the echo unit before the reference echo unit, K is the number of echo units including the reference echo unit and the echo units before it, For the The signal power of each echo unit.
[0095] If the signal power of the target echo unit is less than or equal to the signal power threshold, the target echo unit contains the detected target; if the signal power of the target echo unit is greater than the signal power threshold, the target echo unit does not contain the detected target.
[0096] For example, in the first sequence, The second-order difference value of is the smallest, then the reference echo unit is , the reference echo unit and the sequence before the reference echo unit are { , the first sequence { The signal powers of the K corresponding reference echo units are added together to obtain the sum of the powers, that is, the reference signal power. The signal power threshold is determined according to the above formula, and the target echo unit is detected based on the signal power threshold.
[0097] In summary, the present invention provides a radar detection method in a multi-target environment, comprising: acquiring a target echo signal and performing FFT processing on the target echo signal, wherein the target echo signal is composed of a plurality of echo units; selecting M / 2 echo units on the left and right of the target echo unit as reference echo units, wherein M is a multiple of 2; for each reference echo unit, executing steps S31-S33, comprising: step S31, determining a signal amplitude mean square error estimate of the reference echo unit according to the N / 2 echo units on the left and right of the reference echo unit, wherein N is a multiple of 2; step S32, determining a signal amplitude mean square error estimate of the reference echo unit according to the N / 2 echo units on the left and right of the reference echo unit, wherein N is a multiple of 2; step S33, determining a signal amplitude mean square error estimate of the reference echo unit according to the N / 2 echo units on the left and right of the reference echo unit, wherein N is a multiple of 2; step S34, determining a signal amplitude mean square error estimate of the reference echo unit according to the N / 2 echo units on the left and right of the reference echo unit, wherein N is a multiple of 2; step S35, determining a signal amplitude mean square error estimate of the reference echo unit according to the N / 2 echo units on the left and right of the reference echo unit, wherein N is a multiple of 2; step S36, determining a signal amplitude mean square error estimate of the reference echo unit according to the N / 2 echo units on the left and right of the reference echo unit, wherein N is a multiple of 2; step S37, determining a signal amplitude mean square error estimate of the reference echo unit according to the N / 2 echo units on the left and right of the reference echo unit, wherein N is a multiple of 2; step S38, determining a signal amplitude mean square error estimate of the reference echo unit according to the N / 2 echo units on the left and right of the reference echo unit, wherein N is a multiple of 2; step S39, determining a signal amplitude mean square error estimate of the reference echo unit according to the N / 2 echo units on the left and right of the reference echo unit, wherein N is a multiple of 2 The method comprises the following steps: determining whether the reference echo unit needs to be eliminated based on the signal amplitude mean square error estimation of the reference echo unit and the preset threshold of the mean square error; step S33, sorting the reference echo units that have not been eliminated according to the signal amplitude mean square error estimation of the reference echo units that have not been eliminated to obtain a first sequence; determining the second-order difference value of each reference echo unit in the first sequence, and taking the reference echo unit corresponding to the minimum second-order difference value as the reference echo unit; in the first sequence, determining whether the target echo unit contains the detection target based on the signal power of the reference echo unit, the signal power of the echo unit before the reference echo unit and the preset zoom factor. Through the above operations, in a multi-target environment, when the radar receives an echo signal containing multiple targets, for a certain unit to be detected, the mean square error corresponding to its reference echo unit is estimated respectively to determine whether the reference echo unit has other target signals. If the reference echo unit has echo signals of other targets, the reference unit echo is discarded. The updated reference echo units are sorted to serve as the reference signal sequence for background clutter power statistics. At the same time, the second-order difference estimation is performed on all reference unit signals respectively, the reference unit number corresponding to the minimum second-order difference is found, and the threshold used to judge whether there is a target on the detection unit is output. Finally, according to the threshold and the detection unit signal power, it can be determined whether there is a target signal on the detection unit.
[0098] Compared with other traditional multi-target detection algorithms, when other algorithms estimate the background clutter power of a certain target signal unit, if the reference unit contains echo signals of other targets, it may interfere with the estimation of the background clutter power threshold, resulting in a decrease in the detection probability of the target signal unit, which reduces the detection performance of the radar system in a multi-target environment. The present invention uses the concept of mean square error to determine the discrete degree of the reference unit data used to estimate the background clutter power, and determines whether the reference unit contains other target information based on the mean square error estimation result; the dynamic relationship between adjacent reference unit signals is represented by the second-order difference, and the minimum second-order difference is used as the standard to determine the reference signal used to estimate the background clutter power, thereby achieving target detection. When detecting a certain target signal in a multi-target echo signal, the present invention can eliminate the interference of other target echo signals, thereby ensuring the detection performance of the radar system in a multi-target environment and improving the detection probability of the radar.
