Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of signal processing, and particularly relates to a mismatched signal robust detection method under main lobe interference background. BACKGROUND

[0002] Frequency diverse array (FDA) radar is a new radar system emerging in recent years. Unlike phased array (PA) radar and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar, FDA radar introduces a small frequency difference between each transmitting unit, so that the transmitting pattern of the FDA radar is not only related to the angle, but also related to the distance. The frequency diverse array multiple-input multiple-output (FDA-MIMO) radar combining FDA radar and MIMO radar not only enjoys the spatial diversity advantage of MIMO radar, but also has a controllable degree of freedom in the distance dimension. Early researches on FDA-MIMO radar are mostly focused on static targets, such as parameter estimation, clutter suppression, interference (especially main lobe interference) identification and suppression, etc.

[0003] Under the scenario of FDA-MIMO radar detecting targets in the air, false targets are easily disturbed, and the false targets are similar to real targets in features. Both the false targets and the real targets are located in the main lobe detection beam. Using the traditional method, the false targets increase the difficulty of target detection, and the existence of main lobe interference increases the detection false alarm rate. In addition, due to the existence of a certain width of the beam, there is a deviation between the apparent parameters of the target detection and the real target parameters, and the mismatch of the steering vector will lead to the decline of the target detection performance.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to provide a mismatched signal robust detection method to improve the defects existing in the prior art. SUMMARY

[0010] According to the detection statistic, a distance gate estimation result and an ambiguity number estimation result are obtained; it is judged whether the ambiguity number estimation result is equal to preset target distance ambiguity region prior information, if yes, there is a real target in the to-be-detected signal, and the target distance gate position is obtained, if not, there is no real target in the to-be-detected signal.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:

[0024] Specifically, in the embodiment, for the FDA-MIMO radar, the array comprises a uniform linear array with an array element spacing of , the number of transmitting array elements and receiving array elements is and respectively. Considering that there is a real target at a far-field position, the real target is located at a distance and an angle , after distance-dependent compensation, the real target signal received by the FDA-MIMO radar is represented as:

[0097] In an optional embodiment of the present application, the detection effect of the robust detector in the main lobe interference background provided by the above embodiment is verified through simulation experiments, specifically:

[0098] I. Simulation conditions

[0099]

[0100] ​The simulation experiment conditions of the embodiment are as follows: the transmitting array and the receiving array in the FDA-MIMO radar are set as 6-element uniform linear arrays, the element spacing is half wavelength, the radar carrier frequency is 10 GHz, the element spacing is 0.15 m, the frequency increment is 6 kHz, the training sample sampling number is 4 , the to-be-detected window length is 30, and the radar detection apparent angle is 0 degree. It is considered that there is 1 real target and 4 main lobe interferences in the to-be-detected window, which are located in the 20th, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th range gates respectively, and the real target distance ambiguity number is 1 obtained in the search stage.

[0101] II. Simulation content and result analysis

[0102] Please refer to Figure 4a and 4b , Figure 4a is a histogram of the signal source number estimation probability of the mismatch signal robust detection method provided by the embodiment of the application under different signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions, Figure 4b is a histogram of the signal source position estimation probability of the mismatch signal robust detection method provided by the embodiment of the application under different signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions. In the simulation experiment, the angle deviation between the actual signal angle and the apparent parameter is 3 dB beam width, and the selection in the subspace matrix is the uniform sampling of 4 points within one beam width, and the adjustable factor in the GIC criterion is set as 8.

[0103] As shown in Figure 4a , the mismatch signal robust detection method provided by the application has the maximum estimation probability at the correct signal source number position, and the probability of correctly estimating the signal source number is improved with the increase of the signal-to-noise ratio. When SNR=0 dB, the probability of correctly estimating the signal source number based on the BIC criterion is greater than that based on the GIC criterion; when SNR is improved to 5 dB, the estimation probability based on the BIG and GIC criteria reaches 1, which proves the ability of the mismatch signal robust detection method provided by the application to correctly estimate the number of signals of interest in the to-be-detected window. As shown in Figure 4b , when SNR=0 dB, the probability of judging that there is a signal at the correct range gate position based on the mismatch signal robust detection method provided by the application is greater than 0.75; with the improvement of the detection signal-to-noise ratio, when SNR=0 dB, the detection probability of all signals of interest is 1, which proves the ability of the mismatch signal robust detection method provided by the application to detect and judge the correct signal position. In addition, it is noted that the mismatch signal robust detection method provided by the application does not judge that there is a signal at the position without a signal under the simulation conditions, that is, it does not cause ghosting, which proves the effectiveness of the detection and judgment of the mismatch signal robust detection method provided by the application.

[0104] In order to analyze the change of the detection performance with the signal-to-noise ratio, as shown in Figure 5a and 5b ,​Figure 5a is a schematic diagram of the real target detection performance curve with the change of signal-to-noise ratio when the angle deviation is 0 provided by an embodiment of the present application, Figure 5b is a schematic diagram of the real target detection performance curve with the change of signal-to-noise ratio when the angle deviation is 3dB beam width provided by an embodiment of the present application, in order to compare the method proposed in the present application with the existing method, the method in reference 1 is taken as a comparative experiment. From Figure 5a It can be seen that, since there is no angle deviation at this time, compared with the method in document 1 (J. Zhu, S. Zhu, J. Xu and L. Lan, "Discrimination of Target and Mainlobe Jammers With FDA-MIMO Radar" IEEE Signal Processing Letters, vol. 30 pp. 583-587, 2023.), the detection performance of the mismatch signal robust detection method proposed in the present application has performance loss, indicating that the robustness is at the cost of detection performance loss. Further, from Figure 5b It can be seen that, under the condition of angle deviation, the robust detection method proposed in the present application is superior to the method in document 1. When the detection probability is 0.9, the detection performance of the mismatch signal robust detection method proposed in the present application is improved by more than 2.4dB compared with the method in document 1, indicating that the robust detection ability of the mismatch signal robust detection method proposed in the present application is superior to the existing detection method under the condition of signal mismatch. In addition, compared with Figure 5a and Figure 5b It can be found that the detection performance of the mismatch signal robust detection method proposed in the present application is consistent under different angle deviations, because the detection performance of the mismatch signal robust detection method proposed in the present application is irrelevant to the deviation amount.
