Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of radar signal detection, and particularly relates to a method for detecting radar signals with the minimum anti-eigenvalue by using stochastic resonance preprocessing. Background Art

[0002] A constant false alarm rate detector (CFAR) can effectively maintain a constant false alarm rate in a complex interference environment. Especially, detecting weak radar signals in a low signal-to-noise ratio environment is an important and difficult task, which is of great significance for both military and civilian fields. Conventional CFAR detection methods include the cell-averaging CFAR detection algorithm (CA-CFAR) that uses the original radar signal data, but its false alarm rate is relatively high at the clutter edge. In recent years, CFAR detectors based on the signal covariance matrix have received extensive attention, namely, matrix CFAR detectors (Matrix-CFAR). The covariance matrix can process multi-dimensional signals, which makes it have strong adaptability when dealing with complex signal systems. Whether in the fields of communication, radar or other signal processing, the covariance matrix can provide an effective analysis tool. By analyzing the covariance matrix, it can be understood whether there is a linear correlation between signals. This analysis of the linear relationship is crucial for signal detection and helps to identify the interaction and potential interference between signals.

[0003] Some matrix CFAR detectors based on the covariance matrix have been successively proposed. The CFAR detector based on the maximum eigenvalue of the covariance matrix is vulnerable to noise uncertainty. The classical information geometric CFAR detector has a high computational complexity, which limits the detection scenario. Moreover, in a low signal-to-noise ratio environment, signals are easily submerged by noise, resulting in a decrease in the detection efficiency of the above detection methods. The stochastic resonance system has been successfully applied to the field of signal detection, but the stochastic resonance system with fixed parameters cannot adapt to complex signal detection scenarios. Therefore, a new technical solution is needed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To overcome the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a minimum anti-eigenvalue radar signal detection method using stochastic resonance preprocessing. By performing secondary sampling on the received signal and compressing the frequency of the signal to match the stochastic resonance system, the adaptability of the stochastic resonance system to higher-frequency signals is extended. Subsequently, the signal is preprocessed by stochastic resonance to enhance the signal energy under low signal-to-noise ratio, and the processed signal information is obtained. The processed signal is sent to a constant false alarm rate (CFAR) signal detector, and the covariance matrices of the reference unit and the detection unit signals are constructed. The eigenvalue decomposition is performed on the covariance matrix to obtain the minimum anti-eigenvalue. The minimum anti-eigenvalue of the detection unit is compared with the average minimum anti-eigenvalue of the reference unit to determine the presence of the signal. This method solves the problems that the matrix CFAR detector based on the maximum eigenvalue is vulnerable to noise uncertainty and the CFAR detector based on information geometry has a high computational complexity.

[0055] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0056] This embodiment provides a method for detecting a constant false alarm signal of a minimum anti-eigenvalue matrix with stochastic resonance preprocessing. In a low signal-to-noise ratio environment, the noise intensity is much higher than the signal intensity. To address the possible problem of increased leakage detection probability, adaptive stochastic resonance is used to preprocess the signal, transfer the noise energy to the energy of weak signals, and improve the output signal-to-noise ratio of the system. To address the problems that the maximum eigenvalue is easily affected by noise uncertainty and the information geometry calculation complexity of the covariance matrix is high, a matrix constant false alarm detector with the minimum anti-eigenvalue of the covariance matrix is constructed, which can effectively detect signals while having a low calculation complexity. The specific steps are as follows:

[0057] Step S1: The receiver can capture radar signals through multi-antenna technology and perform secondary sampling on the radar signals to obtain sampling signals;

[0058] In one implementation, the number of antennas of the receiver is , sample the received radar signal, and use the frequency scaling technique to introduce a frequency scaling factor to equivalently reduce the frequency of the signal before random resonance preprocessing, expand the frequency range adapted by the random resonance system, and then send the sampled data into the adaptive random resonance system for signal preprocessing.

[0059] In one implementation, the process of the secondary sampling is as follows:

[0060] Perform a scale transformation on the radar signal frequency and introduce a scale transformation factor to reduce the frequency to of the original, and the sampled signal after scale transformation is expressed as:

[0061]

[0062] where represents the signal amplitude, represents the discrete time series, represents the sampling interval.

[0063] Step S2: Perform adaptive random resonance preprocessing on the sampled signal;

[0064] In one implementation, the process of the adaptive random resonance preprocessing is as follows:

[0065] The random resonance system does not require additional noise , and under the condition of low signal-to-noise ratio, the system transfers its own noise energy to the energy of the useful signal, thereby realizing signal enhancement.

[0066] The random resonance Langevin equation is defined as:

[0067]

[0068] In the formula, represents the output signal of the random resonance preprocessing, represents time, is the sampled signal obtained in step one, is the additive Gaussian white noise;

[0069] is the potential function of the bistable system, and the specific form is as follows:

[0070]

[0071] where and are the parameters of the potential function;

[0072] Parameter selection of the potential function: The potential barrier height of the potential function represents the potential energy value that the system needs to overcome to transition from one stable state to another. Let Two potential wells of the system potential function are obtained: , And the potential barrier height: . The adaptive stochastic resonance system can set appropriate system parameters according to the magnitude of the current noise power. When the system output has the maximum signal-to-noise ratio, the design criterion of the adaptive stochastic resonance system is: , , ; represents the energy of the noise, represents that the adaptive stochastic resonance system does not require additional noise;

[0073] For the stochastic resonance Langevin equation, the Runge-Kutta algorithm is used to find the approximate solution, and the sampled values in the stochastic resonance preprocessed output signal are obtained.

[0074] Further, the implementation process of using the Runge-Kutta algorithm to find the approximate solution for the stochastic resonance Langevin equation is as follows:

[0075]

[0076] Among them, is the -th sampled value in the stochastic resonance preprocessed output signal , is the calculation step size, is set to the reciprocal of the system sampling frequency, and the function , is -th sampled value in , is the average slope, .

[0077] Step S3: Perform adaptive stochastic resonance preprocessing on the detection unit and each reference unit of the constant false alarm detector, and calculate the covariance matrices of the detection unit and each reference unit respectively using the average value of the stochastic resonance preprocessed output signal;

[0078] The detection unit of the constant false alarm detector is represented by a -dimensional covariance matrix as , and the covariance matrix data of the reference unit . Figure 1 is the schematic diagram of the matrix constant false alarm detector of the present invention.

[0079] Step S4: Perform eigenvalue decomposition on the covariance matrices of each detection unit and reference unit, and calculate the minimum inverse eigenvalue of the covariance matrix of the detection unit and the covariance matrices of each reference unit.

[0080] In one implementation, the process of performing eigenvalue decomposition on the covariance matrices of each detection unit and reference unit and calculating the minimum inverse eigenvalue of the covariance matrix of the detection unit and the covariance matrices of each reference unit is as follows:

[0081] Denote the covariance matrix of the detection unit and reference units as , represents the covariance matrix of the detection unit, represents the covariance matrices of

[0082] Define the angle between the covariance matrix and the vector as . The scalar value that causes the largest change in direction when the matrix is multiplied by the vector is called the inverse eigenvalue. Using this feature, denote the -th inverse eigenvalue of the covariance matrix as:

[0083]

[0084] where is the inverse eigenvector corresponding to the -th inverse eigenvalue of the covariance matrix, represents the dimension of the covariance matrix , is the covariance matrix and the vector angle between; represents the inner product of the vectors, represents the norm of the vector;

[0085] The inverse eigenvalue can be solved using the eigenvalues of the covariance matrix. The relationship between the inverse eigenvalue and the eigenvalue of the covariance matrix satisfies:

[0086]

[0087] Furthermore, the relationship between the -th inverse eigenvalues of the covariance matrix satisfies: ;

[0088] Further obtain the minimum inverse eigenvalue of the covariance matrix as:

[0089]

[0090] where and respectively represent the maximum eigenvalue and the minimum eigenvalue of the covariance matrix;

[0091] Without loss of generality, let the minimum anti-eigenvalue of the detection unit be , and the minimum anti-eigenvalues of the reference units be , respectively. All the minimum anti-eigenvalues are independent of each other, and follow distribution, denoted as: . Therefore, the joint probability density function of the minimum anti-eigenvalues is expressed as:

[0092]

[0093] Step S5: The detection statistic formed by the minimum anti-eigenvalues of the covariance matrix of the detection unit and the covariance matrices of each reference unit, is compared with a preset threshold . If is greater than , it is determined that the radar signal does not exist, denoted as . If is less than , it is determined that the radar signal exists, denoted as .

[0094] In one implementation, the calculation process of the detection statistic is as follows:

[0095]

[0096] where is the minimum anti-eigenvalue of the detection unit, and are the minimum anti-eigenvalues of M reference units.

[0097] In one implementation, the threshold is determined according to the distribution of the minimum anti-eigenvalues. Generally, a value less than 1 is selected, and the value range determines the false alarm probability of the constant false alarm detector.

[0098] The probability density function of the detection statistic constructed by the present invention is independent of the noise parameter and can maintain the property of constant false alarm probability. The following joint probability density function is obtained by using the Jacobi transformation of the multi-dimensional conditional probability density function:

[0099]

[0100] Let be the inverse function of T, then there is:

[0101]

[0102] Therefore, the Jacobian matrix is as follows:

[0103]

[0104] where , so is an upper triangular matrix, and its determinant , so the joint probability density function can be further expressed as:

[0105]

[0106] Therefore, the probability density function of the detection statistic is as follows:

[0107]

[0108] Subsequently, the false alarm probability is:

[0109]

[0110] It can be seen from the above formula that the false alarm probability of the detection statistic proposed by the present invention is independent of the noise parameter and can maintain the constant false alarm probability property.

[0111] This embodiment is also compared with the following multiple constant false alarm detection methods: traditional Fourier transform constant false alarm detector (FFT-CFAR), maximum eigenvalue matrix constant false alarm detector (ME-MD), maximum minimum eigenvalue ratio matrix constant false alarm detector (MME-MD), Log-Euclidean mean detector (Log-Euclidean Mean), and minimum anti-eigenvalue matrix constant false alarm detector without preprocessing (MA-MD).

[0112] Figure 2 is under the condition of -10 dB. The signal to be detected is submerged in the background noise, and the periodic fluctuation of the signal cannot be observed in the time domain. After the output of the stochastic resonance process, the periodicity of the signal is significantly observed. Due to the transfer of noise energy to signal energy, its amplitude changes. Calculate the results of the minimum anti-eigenvalue difference before and after preprocessing under and conditions as shown in Figure 3 subfigure (a) - Figure 3 subfigure (b). The minimum anti-eigenvalue difference after the stochastic resonance preprocessing used in the present invention becomes larger compared to the direct detection difference, making it easier to distinguish and conditions, and improving the detection probability.

[0113] Figure 4 Under the conditions that the reference unit M = 16, the number of antennas G is set to 20, and the number of sampling points N = 1000, the performance of different algorithms is compared. The detection effect of the present invention is better than that of other detection methods under low signal-to-noise ratio.

[0114] In summary, from the analysis of the simulation effect diagram, it can be seen that the minimum anti-eigenvalue constant false alarm detection method based on adaptive bistable stochastic resonance proposed by the present invention improves the signal detection probability under low signal-to-noise ratio.
