Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of integrated sensing target detection technology, and in particular to a target detection method based on coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform, a target detection device based on coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform, an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium. Background Technology
[0002] Integrated Radar Sensing and Communication (ISAC) technology is a key technology in 5G NR (New Radio) and next-generation wireless networks. This technology achieves dual functions of target sensing and wireless communication by sharing hardware systems and wireless spectrum, showing significant application prospects in fields such as intelligent transportation, smart homes, and security and surveillance. Compared to traditional, separate communication and radar technologies, integrated radar sensing and communication technology not only increases system feasibility but also reduces system cost and complexity. However, in practical applications, ISAC waveform design remains a critical issue.
[0003] In 5G NR systems, the ISAC system utilizes traditional Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) communication signals for integrated sensing and communication, representing a typical approach to achieving dual communication and sensing functions. It fully leverages the multi-subcarrier diversity of OFDM communication systems, the high range resolution of OFDM radar, and the range-Doppler decoupling characteristics. To date, researchers have proposed sensing algorithms based on OFDM signals for integrated sensing and communication. These algorithms utilize the range-Doppler decoupling characteristics of OFDM echo signals and employ Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT) to estimate target range and velocity parameters, respectively. To improve the accuracy of parameter estimation, researchers model OFDM sensing signals as multi-channel signals and utilize subspace algorithms to achieve high-resolution estimation of range and velocity. Furthermore, to utilize spatial degrees of freedom information, integrated sensing and communication waveform design methods under MIMO systems have emerged.
[0004] In the process of realizing this invention, the inventors discovered that all existing technologies require continuous subcarriers for integrated sensing waveform design. When subcarriers are discontinuous, the existing integrated sensing algorithms are severely degraded or even unusable. Therefore, when spectrum resources are scarce or when there is a discontinuous distribution of available subcarriers due to large-scale users, accurate and efficient target sensing services cannot be provided.

[0034] Example 1
[0035] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a target detection method based on coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the situation where a 5G-NR base station transmits a radio frequency signal of coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing baseband signal waveform for target detection. This method can be executed by a target detection device based on coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform. This device can be implemented in hardware and / or software and is generally configured in a single-site OFDM pulse radar system. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:
[0036] S110. Based on the communication parameters in the 5G-NR sensing integration scenario, determine the number of coprime factor pairs, and based on the number of coprime factor pairs, determine the coprime OFDM subcarrier index set used in the sensing scenario.
[0037] Among them, the 5G-NR (New Radio) integrated sensing scenario can be understood as all OFDM subcarrier resources that can be used under the 5G New Radio communication protocol, which can be used for both sensing and communication scenarios.
[0038] The communication parameters can be understood as various standard communication parameters used in the 5G-NR communication protocol, such as OFDM signal bandwidth and subcarrier spacing. Coprime factor pairs can be understood as two coprime factors that are mutually prime. These two coprime factors can be used to identify multiple sets of coprime OFDM subcarriers in a series of consecutive OFDM subcarriers for use in sensing scenarios. The coprime OFDM subcarrier index set can be understood as the set of index numbers of coprime OFDM subcarriers within a series of consecutive subcarriers.
[0039] In an optional implementation of this embodiment, determining the coprime factor pairs based on the communication parameters in the 5G-NR integrated sensing scenario may include:

[0041] According to the formula: {(M,N)|(2M-1)N≤N s Let (M,N)=1}, then determine the number of coprime factor pairs M and N; where (M,N)=1 represents that the greatest common divisor between M and N is 1.
[0042] In a specific example, if the OFDM signal bandwidth is B and the subcarrier spacing is Δf, then the total number of subcarriers is... Furthermore, in a 5G-NR integrated sensing scenario, when bandwidth B = 100MHz, Δf = 60KHz, N s =1666.
[0043] Furthermore, using the formulas described above for determining the number of coprime factor pairs M and N, we can calculate M = 8 and N = 111.
[0044] In another optional implementation of this embodiment, determining the coprime OFDM subcarrier index set used in the sensing scenario based on coprime factor pairs may include:
[0045] According to the formula: Determine the coprime OFDM subcarrier index set used in the sensing scenario
[0046] Continuing the previous example, when M=8 and N=111, the coprime OFDM subcarrier index set It can be represented as:
[0047]
[0048] Meanwhile, coprime OFDM subcarrier index set The number of elements contained therein is the total number N of OFDM subcarriers used in the sensing scene. cop , where N cop =2M + N - 1 = 126. Simultaneously, the bandwidth B occupied by the perceived scene can also be calculated. cop B cop =N cop ×Δf=126×60=7.56(MHz), and the percentage of bandwidth occupied by the sensing scene to the total bandwidth ρ:
[0049] N obtained from the above calculation cop As can be seen from ρ, in the sensing scenario of 5G-NR integrated sensing, the problem of spectrum resource shortage in the integrated sensing system can be effectively reduced, and the overhead of spectrum resources for sensing can be minimized.
[0050] S120. Based on the coprime OFDM subcarrier index set, establish a baseband signal model of the coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform, and after generating a coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing baseband signal waveform that matches the baseband signal model, radiate the radio frequency signal of the coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing baseband signal waveform to the surrounding environment.
[0051] Based on the coprime OFDM subcarrier index set, establishing a baseband signal model for the coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform can include:
[0052] According to the formula:
[0053] Constructing a baseband signal model s for coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform cop (t);
[0054] Where, N u N represents the number of pulses within a frame. cop c represents the number of coprime OFDM subcarriers in the coprime OFDM subcarrier index set. k,u p represents the modulation symbol of the k-th subcarrier and the u-th pulse. k This represents the index number of the k-th subcarrier in the coprime OFDM subcarrier index set, where Δf is the subcarrier spacing, and T... r The pulse repetition period is represented by T, which is the duration of one OFDM symbol. rect(·) represents a rectangular pulse.
[0055] Specifically, N u , Δf, T r Both T and c are known communication parameters in the 5G-NR integrated sensing scenario. k,uThis is the modulated signal obtained by adjusting a known signal using subcarriers.
[0056] In this embodiment, after establishing the baseband signal model of the coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform, a coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing baseband signal waveform matching the baseband signal model can be constructed first. Then, the coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing baseband signal waveform is subjected to signal modulation processing to obtain a radio frequency signal conforming to the 5G-NR communication protocol. The radio frequency signal is then radiated to the surrounding environment through the base station's transmitting antenna for target detection.
[0057] Specifically, in Figure 2 The diagram illustrates a target vehicle perception scenario applicable to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, 5N-NR base stations applied to sensing scenarios (such as...) Figure 2 The ISAC BS shown is placed on a roadside gantry. The 5G-NR base station uses the radio frequency signal radiated by the coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse to sense the baseband signal waveform in the surrounding environment. The position and speed of the target vehicle can be detected by the echo signal reflected back from the target vehicle.
[0058] S130. Based on the vehicle target scenario, construct the baseband echo signal model and the equivalent subcarrier echo signal model of the coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform, process the echo signal to obtain the time delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix for target detection.
[0059] In this time-delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix, each matrix element is used to describe the echo signal power value under a set time delay and a set Doppler frequency.
[0060] In an optional implementation of this embodiment, based on the vehicle target scene, a baseband echo signal model of the coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform and an echo signal model of the equivalent subcarrier are constructed. The echo signal is then processed to obtain a time-delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix for target detection, which may include:
[0061] S1301. In the vehicle target scenario, by modeling the moving vehicle as a multi-scattering point model, the baseband echo signal model of the coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform is constructed as follows:
[0062]
[0063] Where Q represents the number of vehicle targets, N t β represents the number of reflection points of the target vehicle. q,iThis represents the backward complex amplitude of the i-th reflection point in the q-th vehicle. R represents the delay of the echo from the i-th reflection point in the q-th vehicle. i Let be the distance from the i-th reflection point to the signal source; v represents the Doppler frequency of the echo from the i-th target in the q-th vehicle. q,i Let λ be the velocity of the i-th reflection point in the q-th vehicle, λ be the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave, c0 represent the propagation speed of the electromagnetic wave, and w(t) represent the ground clutter and receiver thermal noise components.
[0064] The symbols not fully described in this formula can be found in the symbol representation of the baseband signal model of the coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform.
[0065] S1302. Based on the baseband echo signal model of the coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform, perform cyclic prefix removal, subcarrier separation, and modulation symbol removal processing on the echo signal in sequence, and then process according to the sampling interval. The processed baseband echo signal is sampled to obtain the echo matrix Y of the physically coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing signal. cop .
[0066] Among them, the baseband echo signal (Y) of the u-th pulse and the k-th subcarrier cop ) u,k Represented as:
[0067]
[0068] Among them, Y cop N represents u ×N cop The echo matrix of the physically coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing signal, (W1) u,k This indicates that w(t) has undergone cyclic prefix removal, subcarrier separation, modulation symbol removal, and time-domain sampling to obtain the baseband ground clutter and receiver thermal noise components of the u-th pulse and the k-th subcarrier.
[0069] Optionally, cyclic prefix removal can be understood as truncating the received echo signal according to a preset time length, obtaining only the echo signal after removing the cyclic prefix for subsequent processing; subcarrier separation can be understood as performing OFDM subcarrier demodulation on the echo signal; and modulation symbol removal can be understood as dividing the demodulated echo signal by the modulation symbol c. k,u The process involves removing modulation symbols from the echo signal. After sequentially performing cyclic prefix removal, subcarrier separation, and modulation symbol removal on the echo signal, the resulting signal is called the baseband echo signal.
[0070] In an optional implementation of this embodiment, the total number of subcarriers N can be used as a reference. s And the subcarrier spacing Δf, determine the pulse spacing Δt, and use the pulse spacing Δt as the sampling interval to sample the echo processing signal, and then sample the N... u ×N cop Using sampling points, the echo matrix Y of the physically coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing signal is constructed. cop .
[0071] S1303, According to the formula: The difference set of index numbers is calculated.
[0072] S1304, after removing the difference set The duplicate values are identified, and after sorting each difference set element in ascending order, the index number of each equivalent subcarrier is obtained.
[0073] Specifically, an equivalent subcarrier echo signal matrix can be constructed based on the index difference set of the coprime subcarriers and the echo matrix of the physical OFDM coprime subcarrier pulse sensing signal.
[0074] S1305, Regarding matrix Y cop Each row element Y cop (m,:), m=1,…,N u Perform the following operations:
[0075] Among them, Y cop (m,:), m=1,…,N u , representing matrix Y cop The element in the m-th row;
[0076] According to the equivalent subcarrier index number With R cop,m Based on the correspondence of the positions of the elements, the equivalent subcarrier index number is selected. The corresponding elements form the echo signal of the equivalent subcarrier pulse sensing, and finally obtain The echo matrix Y of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse v ;
[0077] Wherein, the echo matrix Y v The signal of the u-th pulse and the l-th equivalent subcarrier is represented as follows:
[0078]
[0079] Among them, (Y) v ) u,l Y represents the echo signal of the sensing waveform of the u-th pulse and the l-th equivalent subcarrier pulse.v express The echo matrix of the equivalent subcarrier pulse sensing waveform, σ q,i =|β q,i | 2 This represents the power of the i-th reflection point in the q-th vehicle. W1 represents the index number of the l-th equivalent subcarrier, and W2 represents the equivalent ground clutter and receiver thermal noise components.
[0080] Specifically, R cop,m Represents matrix Y cop The calculation result is obtained by multiplying each element of a row by the torque of the corresponding element in that row, and then obtaining the R. cop,m Then, the matrix can be further vectorized and redundancy removed, and then processed according to the equivalent subcarrier index number. With R cop,m Based on the correspondence of the positions of the elements, the equivalent subcarrier index number is selected. The corresponding elements form the echo signal of the equivalent subcarrier pulse sensing, which can be obtained. The echo matrix Y of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse v Generally speaking, the echo matrix Y of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse v The number of columns, that is It will be much greater than N cop .
[0081] S1306. Based on the echo matrix Y of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse... v and the index number of each equivalent subcarrier. The time-delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix used for target detection is obtained.
[0082] In an optional implementation of this embodiment, based on the echo matrix Y of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse... v and the index number of each equivalent subcarrier. The time-delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix used for target detection can include:
[0083] Based on the index number of each equivalent subcarrier Determine the longest consecutive subcarrier number; based on the longest consecutive subcarrier number, in the echo matrix Y of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse... v Extracting the local echo matrix of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse. First, the local echo matrix of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse is analyzed. After performing an inverse discrete Fourier transform on each row, a Doppler dimension matrix is obtained; then, a discrete Fourier transform is performed on each column of the Doppler dimension matrix to obtain the time delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix.
[0084] In this process, the elements of each difference set are sorted in ascending order to obtain the index number of each equivalent subcarrier. Then, we can obtain the index numbers of the equivalent subcarriers in the form of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 15. Furthermore, the number of the longest consecutive subcarriers mentioned above is the number of consecutive subcarriers obtained by traversing from the first index, that is, 6 in total, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
[0085] As mentioned earlier, the echo matrix Y of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse v The number of columns is much larger than the echo matrix Y of the physically coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing signal. cop The number of columns is such that, therefore, to ensure the best target detection performance, the echo matrix Y of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse can be... v A continuous column matching the number of longest consecutive subcarriers is extracted from the data to form the local echo matrix of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse. Considering the echo matrix Y of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse with the middle column number v It has good performance and is optional; it can sense the echo matrix Y of the pulse from the equivalent subcarrier. v Starting from the middle column, select columns forward and backward by (number of longest consecutive subcarriers / 2) to finally obtain the local echo matrix of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse.
[0086] The local echo matrix of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse is obtained. Then, the local echo matrix of the equivalent subcarrier sensing pulse can be analyzed first. After performing an inverse discrete Fourier transform (IDFT) on each row, the time delay dimension matrix is obtained. Then, a discrete Fourier transform (DFT) is performed on each column of the time delay dimension matrix to obtain the time delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix, represented as:
[0087]
[0088] Here, IDFT(·, 2) represents performing IDFT on each row, and DFT(·, 1) represents performing DFT on each column.
[0089] The technical solution of this invention constructs a low-overhead coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform and uses this waveform to construct a radio frequency signal for target detection. Based on the vehicle target scenario, the baseband echo signal model and the equivalent subcarrier echo signal model of the constructed coprime OFDM subcarrier pulse sensing waveform are used to perform digital signal processing on the echo signal, resulting in a delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix implementation for target detection. This effectively alleviates the problem of spectrum resource scarcity and discontinuous distribution of available subcarriers in large-scale user scenarios. It achieves sensing performance close to that achieved when using continuous carriers, while greatly satisfying bandwidth constraints and using the lowest possible spectrum resource overhead for sensing.
[0090] Based on the above embodiments, after obtaining the time-delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix for target detection, it may further include:
[0091] The time delay dimension information τ in the time delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix is converted into distance dimension information R, and the Doppler frequency dimension information f in the time delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix is also converted. d After converting to velocity dimension information v, a distance-velocity two-dimensional matrix is obtained;
[0092] The maximum value matrix element in the distance-velocity two-dimensional matrix is obtained by traversing the matrix, and the target distance and target velocity corresponding to the maximum value matrix element are determined as the target detection result.
[0093] As mentioned earlier, after obtaining the time-delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix for target detection, each matrix element in the time-delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix is used to describe the signal amplitude under a set time delay and a set Doppler frequency. Therefore, it is necessary to first convert the matrix dimension information.
[0094] Specifically, we can first use the delay calculation formula. Calculate the distance R and use the Doppler calculation formula. By calculating the velocity v, the delay-Doppler two-dimensional matrix can be converted into a distance-velocity two-dimensional matrix. Then, by scanning this distance-velocity two-dimensional matrix, the target vehicle's distance to the 5G-NR base station and its target velocity can be detected.
[0095] To further illustrate the beneficial effects of this invention compared to the prior art, Monte Carlo simulations are used to demonstrate the beneficial effects of various embodiments of this invention in terms of occupied frequency bandwidth, resolution performance, and target detection.
[0096] In the simulation, we set the following parameters: the proposed 5G NR sensing-integrated waveform is used in intelligent transportation scenarios, and its sensing-integrated function is integrated at the base station; the sensing radar is placed on a gantry above the road at a height h = 7m; considering the subcarrier spacing is Δf = 60kHz, one radio frame is 10ms, which is the pulse coherence processing duration, and the pulse width of the sensing radar is one OFDM symbol duration, i.e., T = 16.67us; the uniform pulse repetition period T r = 0.125ms, number of pulses N u =80, number of subcarriers N s =1666, Number of coprime subcarriers N cop =126, OFDM signal bandwidth is B=100MHz, OFDM carrier center frequency is 26GHz. Assume receiver thermal noise follows an independent zero-mean complex Gaussian distribution with noise variance of 1; ground clutter follows a zero-mean complex Gaussian distribution with clutter-to-noise ratio (CNR) of 30dB, and ground clutter is considered to have internal clutter motion caused by wind speed, with wind speed of 2m / s.
[0097] First, we compared the bandwidth occupied by the OFDM sensing waveform of the proposed coprime sub-carriers (CPC) with that of the OFDM sensing waveform of traditional uniform sub-carriers (UNC). The results are as follows: Figure 3 As shown. In the simulation, the OFDM signal bandwidth of 100MHz corresponds to a frequency range of -50MHz to 50MHz.
[0098] in, Figure 3 This is a frequency occupancy comparison diagram applicable to the technical solution of this embodiment of the invention. Figure 3 The left side is a schematic diagram of the bandwidth occupancy of the CPC-based OFDM sensing waveform. Figure 3 The right side of the diagram shows the bandwidth occupancy of the OFDM sensing waveform based on UNC. Figure 3 It is evident that, compared to UNC, the proposed CPC is largely empty, meaning there are many unused subcarrier frequency bands. Therefore, these unused frequency resources can be used for communication, significantly reducing the overhead of sensing frequency resources.
[0099] Next, we compared the proposed virtual equivalent coprime waveform (VIC) with the distance dimension ambiguity function of UNC, and the results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown.
[0100] in, Figure 4 This is a comparison diagram of a distance-dimensional fuzzy function to which the technical solution of this embodiment of the invention applies. Figure 4 The left part is a distance-dimensional ambiguity function of the virtual equivalent coprime waveform. Figure 4 The right-hand side is the distance-dimensional fuzzy function of UNC. (Through...) Figure 4 It is evident that our proposed VIC and UNC have the same maximum unambiguous distance range, and the peak-sidelobe ratio (PSLR) and integral-sidelobe ratio (ISLR) of VIC are close to those of UNC. This indicates that the proposed coprime subcarrier sensing method can achieve sensing performance close to that of the traditional full-bandwidth OFDM sensing method, while occupying only 7.56% of the bandwidth (calculated in the aforementioned embodiments).
[0101] Then, we compared the target detection performance of the proposed algorithm. Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram comparing the target detection results of two vehicle targets at different distances and speeds obtained by different methods applicable to the technical solution of this invention. It includes: Figure 5 The leftmost part shows a schematic diagram of the target detection results of the sensing method based on equivalent coprime subcarriers combined with DFT (VIC-DFT). Figure 5 The middle section shows a schematic diagram of the target detection results using the CPC-NUDFT sensing method based on physically coprime subcarriers combined with non-uniform DFT (NUDFT), and... Figure 5 The rightmost part is a schematic diagram of the target detection results based on UNC using the DFT method (UNC-DFT).
[0102] In the simulation, the target vehicle is considered to have a length of 4.704m, a width of 1.810m, and a height of 1.454m. The number of reflection points N of the target vehicle is... t =16. The distances between the two vehicles are 42.6m and 132.8m, and their speeds are 30km / h and 60km / h, respectively. The noise-to-speech ratio is set to 20dB, and the signal-to-noise ratio is set to 30dB. Figure 5 It can be seen that the proposed VIC-DFT algorithm outperforms CPC-NUDFT in target detection results and can achieve target detection results close to those of UNC-DFT.
[0103] Figure 6 This is a comparative schematic diagram of the distance dimension cross-section of the distance-speed two-dimensional matrix of multiple vehicles at the same speed, obtained by different methods applicable to the technical solution of this embodiment of the invention. Figure 6 The leftmost part is the distance dimension cross-section obtained based on the VIC-DFT method. Figure 6 The middle section is a distance-dimensional cross-section obtained based on the CPC-NUDFT method. Figure 6 The rightmost part is the distance dimension cross-section obtained based on the UNC-DFT method.
[0104] In the simulation, seven targets were modeled as point targets, all with a speed of 50 km / h, a SNR of 30 dB, a CNR of 40 dB, and distances of 20 m, 40 m, 60 m, 80 m, 100 m, 120 m, and 140 m. Figure 6 As can be seen, although the VIC-DFT method proposed in the various embodiments of this invention performs worse than the UNC-DFT method, it has far fewer false peaks than the CPC-NUDFT method and can distinguish the distances of five targets. This indicates that as the CNR increases, the high sidelobes of the proposed VIC method will affect the multi-target detection performance.
[0105] It should be reiterated that the embodiments of this invention first design an OFDM sensing signal waveform based on coprime subcarrier arrangement in the 5G NR vehicle detection scenario to reduce the frequency resources occupied by the sensing integrated system. Then, based on the designed coprime subcarrier OFDM waveform, a target detection method is proposed: first, an echo signal model of coprime subcarriers is established; then, the echo signal of equivalent subcarriers is constructed; finally, a two-dimensional Fourier transform is performed on the echo signal of equivalent subcarriers to achieve target detection. This algorithm mainly utilizes the coprime sparsity characteristic to design an OFDM subcarrier sparse sensing signal waveform that satisfies the bandwidth constraints of 5G NR to solve the problem of scarce frequency resources. At the same time, it utilizes the characteristic that coprime can increase the degrees of freedom to construct the echo signal of equivalent subcarriers to avoid the performance degradation caused by the reduction of sensing overhead.
[0106] The technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention can be applied to the fields of 5G NR and next-generation radar communication integration to reduce the problem of spectrum resource scarcity in integrated sensing systems and obtain near-uniform sensing performance.
