[0002] Radar signal processing technology plays a crucial role in modern radar systems. Its main task is to extract target signals from complex background noise and interference and accurately estimate the parameters of the targets, including key information such as distance, speed, azimuth, etc. In practical applications, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of radar signals is often affected by various factors, such as target reflection characteristics, propagation path loss, environmental noise, and human interference.

[0003] A low signal-to-noise ratio radar signal processing method and device with the publication number CN115166648B performs autocorrelation processing on the acquired radar signal data to obtain the envelope of the time-domain autocorrelation signal; then, calculates an adaptive threshold, and uses the adaptive threshold to detect the envelope of the time-domain autocorrelation signal to obtain the time-domain data of the first pulse signal; then, performs rough parameter estimation on the time-domain data of the first pulse signal containing the pulse signal, performs pulse compression processing on the time-domain data of the pulse signal to calculate the pulse repetition period of the radar signal, and uses the time-domain data of the first pulse signal to obtain the second signal detection threshold; uses the second signal detection threshold to detect and estimate the parameters of the radar signal data after coherent accumulation superposition to obtain an accurate estimation result of the radar signal parameters. The present invention achieves a high-precision estimation effect on the parameters of low signal-to-noise ratio radar signals. This technical solution shows a high parameter estimation accuracy in a low signal-to-noise ratio environment and has significant application value.

[0004] However, when it is actually used, there are still some drawbacks. For example, in practical applications of existing radar signal processing methods, when multiple targets appear simultaneously and the signal intensities vary greatly, traditional methods often cannot accurately separate and identify weak target signals, and it is difficult to effectively meet the requirements of separating and tracking multi-target signals, and the applicability is relatively weak; Existing radar signal processing methods lack an effective multi-target signal separation mechanism in the data analysis stage. In a multi-target scenario, it is difficult to cope with the mutual interference between multi-target signals, resulting in an increase in the false alarm rate and affecting the accuracy of target detection.

If the adjacent-channel interference ratio between certain valid signals is less than the preset adjacent-channel interference ratio, it indicates that the relative intensity of the interference signal of this valid signal is large, and there is adjacent-frequency signal interference in the radar signal. Relevant personnel should be immediately notified to initiate countermeasures. Otherwise, it indicates that there is no adjacent-frequency signal interference problem in this valid signal, and the radar signal is normal.
