Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of radar signal processing, and more particularly to a radar operating mode recognition method based on high-resolution multi-scale time-frequency representation and visual Transformer. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the rapid development of phased array radar technology, its flexible beam pointing, waveform modulation and multi-task processing capability greatly improve the adaptability and complexity of the radar system. Radar operating mode recognition is a key technology, which aims to accurately identify different operating modes of the radar through in-depth analysis of the radar signal. This technology not only requires extracting effective time-domain and frequency-domain features from the radar signal, but also needs to combine pattern recognition algorithms for in-depth learning and training to cope with the increasingly complex environment and high dynamic changes of the radar operating state.

[0003] The existing radar operating mode recognition method mainly faces the problem that the traditional time-frequency analysis method (such as STFT, CWT) has a serious energy diffusion phenomenon when processing complex radar pulse signals with strong frequency changes (such as linear frequency modulation, nonlinear frequency modulation, phase-coded transient), which leads to ambiguous time-frequency ridge lines and makes it difficult to accurately extract key modulation features. Most methods only extract features from a single time scale (such as within a pulse), making it difficult to fully capture the coordinated evolution characteristics of radar signals in three key scales: between pulse groups (mode switching), within pulse groups (pulse sequence regularity), and within pulses (fine modulation). Traditional machine learning or shallow neural network models are sensitive to changes in time-frequency features under low signal-to-noise ratio and complex electromagnetic environment interference, and have limited generalization ability, making it difficult to meet the requirements of recognition accuracy and robustness.

[0004] The time reassignment synchronous compression transform based on wavelet significantly improves the time-frequency energy concentration by fusing time reassignment and multiple synchronous compression strategies, and introducing group time delay estimation and iterative optimization mechanism, providing a new idea for complex radar signal preprocessing. However, applying it to multi-scale joint representation and driving high-performance recognition models is still a problem to be solved. SUMMARY

Step 2: Perform grayscale processing and size compression on the time-frequency maps at each scale to construct a three-channel time-frequency representation image. The time-frequency maps reflect the variation of the signal in different time and frequency domains, thus forming the dataset for the radar working mode recognition model. Step 3: Construct the block embedding module, block merging module, and BiFormer module based on the visual Transformer model; Step 4: Divide the dataset into training set, validation set and test set in a ratio of 3:1:4, and input the training dataset into the visual Transformer model for training to obtain the trained radar working mode recognition model. Step 5: Input the test set into the trained radar operating mode recognition model. The model outputs the corresponding radar operating mode recognition result based on the input time-frequency map features.

[0024] In this embodiment, it should be specifically explained that in step one, the acquired radar signal is subjected to improved wavelet transform to extract the time-frequency map features of the signal at three different scales: between pulse groups, within pulse groups, and within pulses. The specific process is as follows: The radar signal is represented in a multi-component form by modeling the frequency domain eigenmode functions, namely: ;in, Represents the frequency domain of radar signals; Indicates signal amplitude.

Considering post-processing strategies along the time direction, therefore, based on Time-redistribution synchronous compression transformation can be used with operators To define, that is: ;in, This indicates the result of synchronous compression transformation; Represents the Diclave function; The set of parameters representing non-zero wavelet coefficients; The essence of WTSST is a cumulative process, which involves changing the time scale coefficient from point to point. Convert to new point Furthermore, WTSST retains the ability to recover the original signal, that is: ;for If the selected window satisfies the time band constraint, the time-frequency distribution of the non-zero coefficients of WTSST is concentrated in a narrow band near the trajectory. WTSST is indeed a reliable tool for processing weak frequency-varying signals. However, radar pulse signals usually exhibit more complex modulation patterns, which may cause WTSST to lose its resolution. Therefore, we need to analyze the performance of WTSST under the condition of strong frequency-varying group delay. Consider a signal model whose phase can be locally expanded using the second-order Taylor formula, i.e. , ; income It can be obtained using the following formula: ; According to Passevar's theorem, it can be rewritten as: ;in, This indicates that the signal frequency domain is affected; Representing scale The relevant frequency offset parameters can be obtained.

To specify the equation, i.e. Furthermore, a fixed-point iteration strategy is introduced to compensate. and The error between them is therefore addressed by introducing the WTMSST technique, which is expressed as: ; ; ; in, That is equivalent to , Let be the number of iterations, such that ; In order to obtain patterns through multiple iterations, analysis is necessary. and The relationship between them will Substitution And by combining this with Fubini's theorem, we get: ;in, Represents the time integral variable; The above formula shows The iterative operation is equivalent to compressing the WT coefficients into the newly generated group delay candidate. In this process, if the iterative steps continue, the group delay candidate can always be updated, further introducing... To replace the original group delay candidate in WTSST The expression for obtaining WTMSST is: ; can Described as: ; When the number of iterations is large enough, new group delay candidates will emerge. and The error between them may be close to 0, that is This means the new operator is... It is better suited for processing signals with strong frequency variations. In addition, WTMSST can accurately locate energy ridges, i.e.: ; Furthermore, WTMSST not only improves the resolution of WTSST, but also retains its reconstruction capabilities, namely: .

[0025] In this embodiment, it should be specifically explained that in step two, the time-frequency images at each scale are processed by grayscale conversion and size compression to construct a three-channel time-frequency representation image. These time-frequency images constitute the dataset for radar operating mode recognition. The process is as follows: Grayscale processing involves normalizing each time-frequency distribution and mapping it to a grayscale value range. : ;in, This represents the maximum value of the current distribution. This represents the minimum value of the current distribution. This represents the pixel value after grayscale processing; Represents time coordinates; Represents frequency coordinates; This represents the rounding function; Size compression involves resizing each grayscale image to a fixed size of 224×224, denoted as: The three-channel time-frequency representation is constructed by using grayscale images at three different scales as the RGB channels of a single image to generate a new three-channel time-frequency representation image. ; The final result is a time-frequency representation of size 224×224×3. Each time-frequency map is labeled according to its corresponding radar operating mode, generating a labeled sample. The processed time-frequency maps are classified according to radar operating modes to construct a time-frequency map dataset containing multiple operating modes.

[0026] In this embodiment, it should be specifically explained that the process of obtaining the visual Transformer-based model in step three through block embedding, block merging, and the BiFormer module is as follows: To discretize the continuous time-frequency graph into a serialized feature suitable for Transformer processing while preserving local time-frequency structure information, a patch embedding (PE) strategy is introduced for the input time-frequency graph. Divide it into blocks according to the block size P×P. Each of the following sub-blocks is mapped to a D-dimensional embedding vector via linear projection: , ;in, For learnable projection matrices, Indicates sub-block vectorization operation; Represents the bias vector; Indicates a sub-block index; Indicates the first Embedded vectors; Indicates the total number of sub-blocks; Indicates the first One input block; The role of block embedding is to capture the energy distribution characteristics of adjacent regions in the time-frequency map through block operations, and to simplify the quadratic complexity of pixel-level attention to the linear complexity of inter-block attention. Moreover, this operation supports multi-scale block strategies to adapt to different radar time-frequency representation resolution requirements.

[0027] To perform continuous spatial downsampling and channel expansion of feature maps in deep networks, a pyramid-structured layer-by-layer block merging method is used to achieve cross-scale feature fusion through spatial compression. For the first layer... Feature map of layer Merge into 2×2 domains Each superblock generates high-dimensional features through channel concatenation and linear transformation: Among them, the first The output feature dimension of the layer is , Represents a linear transformation operation; Indicates a channel splicing operation; Indicates the range of row indexes; Indicates the range of column indexes; Indicates column index variable; This represents a 2×2 neighborhood feature block in the first layer; The significance of block merging lies in gradually expanding the time-frequency range of feature coverage through hierarchical downsampling, enabling deep networks to capture mode transfer between pulse groups, shallow networks to analyze modulation details within pulses, and reducing sequence length as depth increases, thus balancing attention computational overhead.

[0028] The overall structure of the BiFormer module can be formally represented as follows: ;in, This represents the output feature map after pooling; Indicates the input feature map; Indicates the convolution operation; Indicates a depthwise convolution operation; Indicates adaptive global pooling; This indicates a two-level routing attention mechanism; Representation layer normalization; Adaptive Global Pooling (AGP) is a pooling method used to transform input feature maps of different sizes into outputs of a fixed size. Unlike traditional global pooling, AGP automatically adjusts the pooling operation parameters based on the size of the input feature map, thus working effectively on inputs of different sizes. In this way, BiFormer can adapt to different input sizes without losing important spatial information. The formula for adaptive global pooling can be expressed as: In the BiFormer module, AGP is used to reduce computational complexity while preserving global information of the input feature map, and it plays a crucial role in the extraction of multi-scale features.

[0029] Depthwise separable convolution is an efficient convolution computation method in convolutional neural networks. Traditional convolution performs computation between each input and output channel, while depthwise separable convolution divides the convolution operation into two steps: first, channel-wise convolution (depthwise convolution), and then pointwise convolution between output channels (1×1 convolution). This method significantly reduces computational cost, making the model more efficient.

[0030] Depthwise separable convolution first performs a depthwise convolution operation, followed by a pointwise convolution operation. The formula is expressed as: ;in, This represents a pointwise convolution operation. By decomposing the operation in this way, the computational cost of convolution is reduced, making the model computation more efficient. In BiFormer, depthwise separable convolution effectively reduces computational complexity while maintaining the richness of feature representation when used for feature extraction.

[0031] Residual connections help mitigate the vanishing gradient problem in deep networks by directly adding input to output. Specifically, in the BiFormer module, residual connections allow features from previous layers to be directly passed to subsequent layers, thereby accelerating the training process and improving model performance. It enhances the network's expressive power and ensures that information is not lost between layers.

[0032] Layer normalization is a commonly used normalization method, primarily used in deep learning to improve training stability. Unlike batch normalization, layer normalization operates on a per-sample basis, making it suitable for mini-batch and dynamic input scenarios. Layer normalization effectively mitigates training instability caused by variations in activation value distribution. In the BiFormer module, layer normalization ensures the stability of the mean and variance of the input features at each layer, thereby improving model training efficiency.

[0033] A multilayer perceptron (MLP) is a feedforward neural network containing multiple hidden layers, typically used to learn nonlinear mappings. In BiFormer, the MLP is used to perform higher-level nonlinear combinations of extracted features. Through the combination of multiple neuron layers, it enables the model to capture more complex data patterns.

[0034] The output of a multilayer perceptron can be expressed by the following formula: ;in, This represents the output after processing by the multilayer perceptron. and Represents the weight matrix; Represents input features; and Indicates the bias term. This represents the activation function, through multiple layers of nonlinear transformations, enabling the model to capture complex patterns.

[0035] In this embodiment, it should be specifically noted that in step four, the dataset is divided into training set, validation set and test set in a ratio of 3:1:4, and the training dataset is input into the visual Transformer model for training to obtain the trained model.

[0036] In step five, the test set is input into the trained working mode recognition model, and the model will output the corresponding radar working mode recognition result based on the input time-frequency map features.

[0037] This invention performs an improved wavelet transform on acquired radar signals to obtain three-scale time-frequency image data. This data is then grayscaled and stitched together by channel to form a multi-channel time-frequency representation image. These images constitute a dataset for radar operating mode recognition. The training set from this dataset is then input into a visual Transformer-based model for training, resulting in a trained recognition model. Finally, the test set from the dataset is used as input to the recognition model, which identifies the radar operating mode at the current moment based on the visual Transformer model and outputs the result.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0039] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto.
