Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of radar signal processing, and particularly relates to a radar multi-feature constant false alarm detection method, system, terminal, and medium. Background Technique
[0002] In modern radar systems, target detection is the core link for realizing key functions such as maritime surveillance, navigation support, and military defense. Especially in complex sea conditions, due to the interference of various uncertain factors such as sea surface waves and water body scattering, the signals received by the radar often contain a large amount of strong sea clutter, resulting in the masking of target signals. Therefore, in order to ensure the stable performance of the radar system in complex backgrounds, the constant false alarm rate (CFAR, Constant False Alarm Rate) detection technology is widely adopted in academic research and engineering practice. This method sets a detection threshold to keep the false alarm rate of the system stable under different environmental conditions, so as to realize the automatic recognition and alarm of weak targets on the premise of ensuring reliability.
[0003] Most of the existing CFAR detection methods are based on single-feature analysis, and common variants include mean value (CA-CFAR), ordered statistics (OS-CFAR), maximum value (GO-CFAR), and minimum value (SO-CFAR), etc. These methods usually assume that the background noise has a Gaussian or Weibull distribution and derive the detection threshold based on this. However, in actual sea conditions, sea clutter exhibits non-Gaussian and non-stationary characteristics, and there are often complex non-linear correlations between features, which makes traditional CFAR models prone to problems such as high false alarm rates and decreased detection rates in high sea conditions. In addition, although some studies have tried to introduce multi-feature fusion to improve detection performance, they often assume that the features are independent of each other, or fail to establish a clear mathematical relationship between each feature and the false alarm rate, resulting in a lack of interpretability and controllability in the detection process.

Among them, Figure 1 The execution subject can be a radar multi-feature constant false alarm detection system. According to different requirements, the order of the steps in this flowchart can be changed, and some steps can be omitted.
[0056] For the convenience of understanding the present invention, the principle of the radar multi-feature constant false alarm detection method of the present invention is used to further describe the radar multi-feature constant false alarm detection method provided by the present invention.
[0057] This application reformulates the radar target detection problem as a binary hypothesis test and introduces the Copula function to simulate the complex non-linear dependence relationship between multi-features.
[0058] Within this framework, this application proposes the Copula-based constant false alarm (Copula-CFAR) theory and derives the mathematical relationship between the specified PFA (denoted as ) and the detection threshold under common Copula structures.
[0059] Radar target detection can be expressed as a binary hypothesis test problem. Let (denoted as ) represent the received signal of the ranging unit. Assuming that the energy of the noise is significantly weaker than the energy of the sea clutter, the noise part is ignored in this analysis. If a ranging unit contains a target, includes the target signal and sea clutter; otherwise, only includes sea clutter. Therefore, the target detection in sea clutter can be formulated as the following binary hypothesis test:
[0060] (1)
[0061] Among them, and represent the signals of the measured unit and the reference unit respectively. Here, represents the target signal, while and represent the sea clutter signals of the measured unit and the reference unit respectively. Under the null hypothesis condition , there is no target signal in the measured unit, only sea clutter signal, so it is classified as a sea clutter unit. Under the alternative hypothesis , the measured unit contains a target signal in addition to sea clutter, so it is classified as a target unit. The reference unit signal is modeled as , and the number of reference units is set to . In addition, we assume that the sea clutter in the reference unit is spatially uniform, which means that the statistical characteristics of the reference unit are the same as those of the measured unit.
[0062] Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, the radar multi - feature CFAR detection method includes:
[0063] S1. Obtain the radar echo signal of the unit to be measured.
[0064] Specifically, in this application, the detected target is a light buoy, 2.97 nautical miles away from the radar setting point, with an azimuth angle of 10.7°, in an anchored floating state. The target is cylindrical, red in color, with a tank - type top mark. It is made of steel, with a floating body diameter of 2.4 meters and a height above the sea surface of about 4.1 meters. The data acquisition device uses a self - developed portable radar data acquisition device, namely HD - LD - CJ - 22. Each channel uses 14 - bit quantization, with a peak sampling rate of 120 MSPS and a continuous storage capacity of 80 MB / s. The dataset can be downloaded from the specified website:

[0066] S2. Extract the multi - dimensional features of the radar echo signal to obtain a multi - dimensional feature vector.
[0067] S3. Substitute the multi - dimensional feature vector into a preset marginal cumulative distribution function to obtain the probability integral transformation value of each dimension feature. Based on the probability integral transformation values of all dimensions, input them into a pre - constructed Copula function, and obtain the detection statistic of the unit to be measured based on the Copula function.
[0068] The construction method of the preset marginal cumulative distribution function includes:
[0069] Obtain the radar echo signal of the background unit, and extract the multi - dimensional features of the radar echo signal of the background unit . Construct the corresponding marginal cumulative distribution function and the corresponding probability integral transformation value , where , represents the marginal cumulative distribution function of the i - th dimension feature, represents the cumulative probability within its corresponding distribution range. Among them, the marginal cumulative distribution function is obtained by statistically fitting the features of each dimension in multiple background units, and the fitting methods used include maximum likelihood estimation and least squares method. The distribution models used include Beta distribution, log - normal distribution, and exponential distribution.
[0070] The method for pre - constructing a Copula function includes:
[0071] Obtain the radar echo signal of the background unit, and extract the multi - dimensional features of the background unit ; Based on the probability integral transformation value of the background unit, use the maximum likelihood estimation method to determine the parameters of the Copula function, and obtain the Copula function: , where, represents the Copula function.
[0072] Substitute the multi - dimensional feature vector in the unit to be measured into the preset marginal cumulative distribution function to obtain the probability integral transformation value of each dimension of the feature ; Input the probability integral transformation value into the pre - constructed Copula function to obtain the joint cumulative distribution value of the Copula function ; Calculate the threshold of each dimension of the feature , and based on the threshold of each dimension of the feature, transform each dimension of the feature to obtain the statistic:
[0073] .
[0074] The method for calculating the threshold of each dimension of the feature vector as includes:
[0075] The threshold The marginal cumulative distribution function at this time is:
[0076]
[0077] Expressed using the Copula function as:
[0078]
[0079] For a given false alarm probability , define:
[0080]
[0081] Then
[0082] where, represents the probability that an event occurs where one eigenvalue is greater than the threshold , which is the false alarm probability and represents the probability of misjudging the existence of a target.
[0083] S4. Compare the detection statistic of the unit to be measured with the preset decision threshold: If the detection statistic is greater than or equal to the decision threshold, there is a target in the unit to be measured; if the detection statistic is less than the decision threshold, there is no target in the unit to be measured.
[0084] If the statistic then it is determined that there is a target. If the statistic , then it is determined that there is no target.
[0085] Specifically, this application will give several examples to derive the analytical expression of the characteristic threshold corresponding to a given , and then derive the detection probability . It should be noted that these derivations are all based on the equivalent contribution hypothesis, that is, in the process of radar target detection, each characteristic has the same importance.
[0086] Example 1: Independent Copulas with the same marginal distribution
[0087] Suppose the characteristics and follow the exponential distribution with parameter . Their CDF at the threshold of the characteristic is

[0095] Therefore
[0096] (6)
[0097] We obtain
[0098] (7)
[0099] In addition, under the hypothesis, the characteristics still follow the exponential distribution, but the parameter is different. Then the survival function under

[0101] The detection probability is
[0102] (9)
[0103] Since

[0106] (11)
[0107] and
[0108] Since can be simplified to
[0109] (12)
[0110] Example 2: Clayton Copula with the same distribution type but different parameter marginal distributions
[0111] To emphasize the low tail dependence of the feature, we consider using the Clayton Copula. Its form is as follows

[0130] (21)
[0131] According to Theorem 1, the expression of is
[0132] (22)
[0133] The analytical expression of the detection threshold is
[0134] (23)
[0135] In addition, using the Gumbel Copula and equal contribution the joint CDF is . Therefore, the detection probability is
[0136] (24)
[0137] In some embodiments, the radar multi-feature constant false alarm detection system may include multiple functional modules composed of computer program segments. The computer programs of each program segment in the radar multi-feature constant false alarm detection system may be stored in the memory of a computer device and executed by at least one processor to perform (see Figure 1 description) the functions of radar multi-feature constant false alarm detection.

[0139] The signal acquisition module is used to acquire the radar echo signal of the unit to be measured.
[0140] The feature extraction module is used to extract the multi-dimensional features of the radar echo signal to obtain a multi-dimensional feature vector.
[0141] The statistic calculation module substitutes the multi-dimensional feature vector into a preset marginal cumulative distribution function to obtain the probability integral transformation value of each dimension feature. Based on the probability integral transformation values of all dimensions, it is input into a pre-constructed Copula function to calculate and obtain a boundary threshold, thereby obtaining the detection statistic of the unit to be measured;
[0142] The target judgment module is used to compare the detection statistic of the unit to be measured with a preset judgment threshold: if the detection statistic is greater than or equal to the judgment threshold, there is a target in the unit to be measured. If the detection statistic is less than the judgment threshold, there is no target in the unit to be measured.

[0144] Among them, the terminal 300 may include: a processor 310, a memory 320, and a communication unit 330. These components communicate through one or more buses. Those skilled in the art can understand that the structure of the server shown in the figure does not constitute a limitation to the present invention. It can be a bus structure, a star structure, and may also include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine some components, or arrange different components.
[0145] Among them, the memory 320 can be used to store the execution instructions of the processor 310.

This precise threshold calculation mechanism significantly improves the consistency and robustness of the detection system under different sea conditions.
[0151] Thirdly, compared with existing methods such as CA-CFAR and OS-CFAR, this application shows better detection rates and lower false alarm rates in the verification of measured data. Especially in a high-sea state environment, the detection rate can be increased by 20.11% to 28.12%, and the false alarm rate is closer to the theoretical target, showing obvious practical application value and engineering feasibility, and fundamentally solving the key technical bottleneck that traditional CFAR methods are prone to failure in complex backgrounds.
