Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of radar technology, specifically relating to a complementary transmission waveform design method for SAR target enhancement. Background Technology

[0002] Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is an all-weather, all-day, high-resolution imaging system, and acquiring target information is one of the main purposes of SAR imaging. However, clutter caused by complex geographical environments can obscure targets, making target detection difficult. Existing SAR transmission waveforms and imaging methods treat targets and clutter equally, employing uniform waveforms and processing methods, making it difficult for targets to stand out from background clutter. Radar waveforms, as an important controllable resource, have the potential to enhance target imaging by utilizing the differences between clutter and targets and designing waveforms that match targets and mismatch clutter.

[0003] The paper "Optimization of the receive filter and transmit sequence for active sensing, IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, vol.60, no.4, pp.1730-1740, 2012" optimizes the transmit sequence and receive filter under peak-to-average power ratio (PAR) constraints to minimize the mean square error (MSE) between the target scattering coefficient and the estimation under clutter and interference. However, this method is mainly for radar target detection tasks, not target imaging, so it cannot be directly applied to SAR.

[0004] The paper "Cognitive SAR waveform design method based on joint optimization criteria, 2019 6th Asia-Pacific Conference on Synthetic Aperture Radar (APSAR), 2019, pp.1-4" proposes a frequency domain amplitude design method for the transmitted waveform that can maximize the signal-to-clutter-to-noise ratio using prior environmental information. However, this method does not consider the constant mode constraint of the transmitted waveform in the time domain and therefore cannot be directly applied to SAR systems.

[0005] The waveform design methods described above can only optimize a single waveform and cannot improve the signal-to-clutter ratio of the imaging results while ensuring SAR imaging performance. Summary of the Invention

If the condition is not met, repeat steps S321-S323 until the termination condition is met; finally, if the termination condition is met, a convergent sidelobe complementary waveform that can improve the signal-to-clutter ratio of SAR is obtained.

[0077] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The method of this invention first models the design of the transmitted waveform as a non-convex constrained optimization problem using the prior power spectral density of the target and clutter. Then, it decomposes the solution of the optimization problem into two sub-problems using the inaccurate alternating direction penalty method.

It avoids the drawback of existing single-waveform design methods, which result in waveforms with high autocorrelation sidelobes. The SAR transmit waveform set designed using this method has low sidelobes, effectively improving the signal-to-clutter ratio while ensuring SAR imaging performance. It solves the problems of existing radar transmit linear frequency modulated signals failing to achieve target enhancement and other transmit waveforms designed based on improving the signal-to-clutter ratio failing to guarantee SAR imaging performance. Therefore, this transmit waveform can be widely used in SAR mapping, remote sensing, reconnaissance, and other fields. Attached Figure Description

[0124]

[0125] in, and Let represent the multiplier vector and the penalty parameter, respectively, and Re{·} denote the real part of the complex number. Y = [y1,...,y M ],

[0156] In this embodiment, the method of the present invention further includes step S4, which involves changing the transmitted waveform to a designed waveform for imaging simulation, as follows:

[0157] In step S4, the transmitted waveform in the SAR simulation imaging experiment is changed to the convergent sidelobe complementary waveform designed in step S3, and the simulation imaging experiment is performed.

[0163]

[0164] from Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown in Tables 2 and 3, the method of this invention can effectively improve the signal-to-clutter ratio of the imaging results while ensuring SAR imaging performance. This method employs a complementary SAR waveform set design approach to design a transmit waveform that improves the signal-to-clutter ratio while suppressing sidelobes. Unlike existing single-waveform design methods, this invention performs joint optimization of the transmit waveform set, and the designed waveform with complementary sidelobes varies between pulses.

Next, it designs the transmit waveform using spectral amplitude constraints and constant mode constraints, ultimately obtaining a set of transmit waveforms with complementary sidelobes. This method utilizes the degrees of freedom provided by the azimuth multipulse sequence in SAR imaging to eliminate high sidelobes in the waveform after azimuth focusing, effectively improving the SNR while maintaining SAR imaging performance. It avoids the drawback of existing single-waveform design methods, which result in waveforms with high autocorrelation sidelobes. The SAR transmit waveform set designed using this method has low sidelobes, effectively improving the SNR while ensuring SAR imaging performance, thus enabling the widespread application of this transmit waveform in SAR mapping, remote sensing, reconnaissance, and other fields.

If the condition is not met, repeat steps S321-S323 until the termination condition is met; finally, if the termination condition is met, a convergent sidelobe complementary waveform that can improve the signal-to-clutter ratio of SAR is obtained.
