[0002] With the development of electronic countermeasure technology, the survival of radar is facing severe challenges: the radar without radio frequency stealth capability is easy to be intercepted by passive devices such as anti-radiation missiles, radar warning receivers and electronic intelligence systems, therefore, the radio frequency stealth technology can reduce the probability of signal interception while ensuring the radar detection performance.

[0003] In order to counter the increasingly superior passive reconnaissance system, reduce the risk of interception, attack and even destruction of the own side, it is necessary to improve the survival ability of the radar, and it is urgent to develop radar radio frequency stealth technology with high resolution performance and strong anti-interception capability, and the radar waveform as the carrier of the direct confrontation between radar and reconnaissance and jamming is particularly important and more valuable for realizing the balanced waveform design of radar target detection and radio frequency stealth.

[0004] The LPI radar (Low Probability of Intercept Radar) needs to make its maximum detection distance greater than the distance of the enemy interception receiver, the mainstream LFM (Linear Frequency Modulation) - frequency code composite signal increases the difficulty of interception by complex modulation, but there is a problem of high distance sidelobe; the FDA (Frequency Diverse Array) realizes a certain low interception by time-varying pattern, but it is difficult to complete the target coherent accumulation, and the detection capability is weak.

[0005] The MIMO radar (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Radar) disperses the transmitted energy through orthogonal waveforms, and the low interception is only a by-product, the core is to break through the beam pre-focusing limit of phased array, and the transmit pattern is dispersed without purpose, which is only suitable for low confrontation scenes such as civil remote sensing, and in a strong electronic countermeasure environment, the low interception performance is poor and the coherent accumulation capability is weaker than that of the phased array radar.

The array elements are numbered, and the number of array elements is . , As an auxiliary variable, the element spacing is , It is a constant. , This is a high-gain radiation pattern. For the first The objective function expressions for the low-gain and high-gain radiation patterns in the group scan direction are: 。 6. A radar radio frequency stealth system employing a low-intercept design in the airspace, characterized in that, It includes a first construction unit, a placement unit, a second construction unit, a generation unit, a third construction unit, a solution unit, and an output unit; The first construction unit is used to configure the weight vectors of the array element dimension and the pulse dimension, construct the encoding matrix and radar ambiguity function of the array element-pulse domain, so that the average sidelobe level of the radar ambiguity function is minimized and the sidelobe level is reduced to less than a set threshold, while keeping the detection angle and the main lobe level of the Doppler unit not lower than a set threshold.

The generation unit is used to generate several sets of low-gain radiation patterns for scanning directions based on the basic low-gain radiation pattern. The third building block is used to perform a weighted summation of the low-gain radiation patterns in all scanning directions to obtain the expression for the objective function of the high-gain radiation pattern. The solving element is used to solve for the weighting coefficients to obtain the expression for the synthesized high-gain radiation pattern; The output unit is used to transmit pseudo-random low-gain beams associated with the target direction based on the encoding matrix and weighting coefficients of the array element-pulse domain. The receiving array receives the UAV navigation echo and outputs the echo vector. The echo vector is matched and filtered, and combined with the weighting coefficients to synthesize a high-gain interference beam and output it to the UAV navigation frequency band.
