Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of orientation measurement technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, device, and medium for measuring the angle of a target. Background Technology

[0002] Direction finding technology is widely used in fields such as communication monitoring, electronic countermeasures, aviation navigation, emergency rescue, spectrum management and IoT positioning. Its core task is to use the received signal source radiation information to determine the spatial orientation angle of the signal source (such as azimuth angle and elevation angle), thereby achieving target positioning and tracking.

[0003] In existing technologies, in fields requiring precise direction-of-arrival (DOA) determination, such as remote sensing, radio astronomy, and wireless positioning, the performance of traditional direction-finding methods (e.g., single-pulse amplitude / phase comparison, beamforming, etc.) deteriorates significantly when two or more radiation sources are located close to each other and have highly coherent signals. This phenomenon stems from the interference of multiple coherent source signals at the receiver, causing distortion of the directional characteristics of the synthesized signal and producing an effect similar to angular scintillation, making it impossible for the direction-finding system to accurately distinguish the direction of the real target source. Specifically: (1) Insufficient spatial degrees of freedom: When the angular interval between multiple radiation sources is less than the inherent resolution of the system, the spatial filtering method fails due to insufficient degrees of freedom.

[0004] (2) Limitations of polarization filtering: Assuming that different radiation sources have fixed and known polarization states, they can be suppressed by polarization filtering; however, in dynamic scenarios, the attitude change of the target under test will cause the polarization state of the echo signal to fluctuate rapidly, while the polarization state of the ground fixed auxiliary source or some reference source usually remains relatively stable.

[0022] This application provides a method for measuring a target angle, such as... Figure 1 The flowchart shown, in one embodiment, includes: Step 101: Obtain the echo signals of the dynamic target in the horizontal polarization channel and the vertical polarization channel of the single-pulse direction finding system, and obtain the sum signal of the horizontal polarization channel, the difference signal of the horizontal polarization channel, the sum signal of the vertical polarization channel, the difference signal of the vertical polarization channel, and the polarization ratio.

[0023] Specifically: Consider a single-pulse direction finding system with dual orthogonal polarization channel receiving capability; The echo signal of the dynamic target in the horizontal polarization channel of the single-pulse direction finding system is obtained, and the sum signal and the difference signal of the horizontal polarization channel are obtained.

[0024] More specifically: Consider a single-pulse direction finding system with dual orthogonal polarization channel receiving capability; To obtain the echo signal of a dynamic target in the horizontal (H) polarization channel of a single-pulse direction finding system, the sum signal and difference signal of the horizontal polarization channel are obtained: ; ; In the formula, For the sum of signals in the horizontally polarized channel, The difference signal for the horizontally polarized channel.

The amplitude of the dual-polarized signal from the first background coherent source in the vertical polarization channel. The amplitude of the dual-polarization signal from the second background coherent source in the vertical polarization channel. This refers to the echo signal of a dynamic target within the vertical polarization channel. The sum of the signals in the vertically polarized channels is Gaussian white noise. The difference signal in the vertically polarized channel is Gaussian white noise; The echo signals of a dynamic target in the horizontal and vertical polarization channels of a single-pulse direction finding system are acquired (the Jones vector parameters of the echo signals fluctuate with the target attitude between snapshots, characterizing high polarization variability; the Jones vector parameters of the dual-polarization signals remain basically stable or only slightly perturbated between different snapshots, characterizing low polarization variability), and the polarization ratio is obtained: ; In the formula, Polarization ratio, This refers to the echo signal of a dynamic target within the vertical polarization channel. This represents the echo signal of a dynamic target within the horizontal polarization channel. The polarization angle of the echo signal's Jones vector parameter. The polarization phase angle is the Jones vector parameter of the echo signal. It is a natural constant. It is a complex number.

[0025] In this step, the system performs a snapshot for each snapshot. The received signal is modeled to obtain the sum and difference signals.

[0026] Step 102: For the target search angle, the original receiving channels are linearly combined based on the sum signal of the horizontal polarization channel, the difference signal of the horizontal polarization channel, the sum signal of the vertical polarization channel, and the difference signal of the vertical polarization channel to generate a virtual signal.

[0027] Specifically: ; ; in, ; In the formula, This represents the component of the virtual signal in the horizontal polarization channel. This represents the component of the virtual signal in the vertical polarization channel. The difference signal for the horizontally polarized channel. This is the difference signal for the vertically polarized channel. For the sum of signals in the horizontally polarized channel, For the sum of signals in the vertically polarized channels, , For the number of snapshots, For the target single pulse ratio, The slope of the lateral angle. From the perspective of the target search, This represents the antenna beamwidth.

[0028] In this step, virtual polarization weighting is performed, and the generated virtual signal is a pair of virtual polarization weighted signals.

[0029] Step 103: Based on the virtual signal and the polarization ratio, obtain the polarization ratio sequence of the virtual signal.

[0030] Specifically: ; In the formula, This is the polarization ratio sequence of the virtual signal.

[0031] In this step, the polarization ratio sequence of the virtual signal is a time-varying sequence that can characterize the polarization state of the virtual signal.

[0034] In this step, the polarization fluctuation factor is generated. The polarization fluctuation factor serves as a core indicator for evaluating signal polarization stability. The smaller the value, the better the target search angle. The more stable the polarization state of the synthesized virtual signal, the closer it is to the spatial angle of the target.

[0035] Step 105: Based on the polarization fluctuation factor, perform a one-dimensional search to obtain the optimal estimate of the target angle, which is then used as the measurement result of the target angle.

[0036] Specifically: ; In the formula, This is the optimal estimate of the target angle. The target search angle (i.e., the hypothetical target wave direction). Polarization fluctuation factor This represents the antenna beamwidth.

[0037] In this step, based on the polarization fluctuation factor, an angle estimation is performed to minimize it; that is, within a given main lobe half-width interval, the angle that minimizes the cost function is found. The target search angle that achieves the minimum value As the optimal estimate of the target angle When the target search angle Equal to the true target angle At this time, virtual weighting can suppress target signals with high polarization fluctuation characteristics to the greatest extent. At this time, the virtual signal mainly contains background coherent source signals and noise with low polarization fluctuation, which leads to the polarization fluctuation factor of the entire signal sequence. Reach the global minimum.

[0038] The aforementioned target angle measurement method is a high-precision direction finding method that utilizes the difference in polarization statistical characteristics between the target signal and the background coherent signal (i.e., fully leveraging the fundamental difference in the time-varying polarization characteristics between the target source and the auxiliary source). By constructing a parameterized weighted receiving channel and using the minimization of the polarization variance of the output signal of this channel as the optimization criterion, the optimal parameters are searched and directly correspond to the angle of the real target. The method utilizes the dynamic statistical characteristics of the signal polarization domain (i.e., the polarization state of the echo signal of a dynamic target fluctuates drastically over time (snapshot), while the polarization state of a fixed or cooperating background coherent source changes relatively smoothly over time). Even in the presence of a strong coherent background radiation source, it can still achieve high-precision and highly robust single-pulse measurement of the target angle.

[0039] Specifically: 1. Based on the polarization fluctuation factor, a one-dimensional search is performed to obtain the optimal estimate of the target angle, realizing high-precision angle measurement (high-precision direction finding): By utilizing the statistical difference of signal polarization, rather than the instantaneous polarization state, the direction finding problem under strong coherent background sources is fundamentally solved, breaking through the limits of traditional direction finding and realizing high-precision angle measurement in scenarios where traditional methods fail.

[0040] 2. Based on the polarization fluctuation factor, a one-dimensional search is performed to obtain the optimal estimate of the target angle, which has excellent environmental robustness: the angle measurement performance shows strong stability against amplitude / phase mismatch, small polarization differences and changes in received signal-to-noise ratio within the background coherent source, and is suitable for complex and variable real electromagnetic environments.

[0041] 3. For the target search angle, the original receiving channels are linearly combined to generate a virtual signal, and combined with the polarization ratio, the polarization ratio sequence of the virtual signal is obtained, which improves the computational efficiency and real-time performance: linear weighting, polarization ratio calculation and one-dimensional search are adopted to avoid complex matrix operations, iterative optimization or multi-dimensional search, which greatly reduces the computational complexity and makes it easy to execute in real time in embedded signal processors.

[0042] 4. Excellent system compatibility and easy integration: The method only requires the receiving system to have a dual-polarization channel, and has no special requirements for the transmitted signal waveform, array configuration and transmitted beam. It can be easily integrated into various existing direction finding systems for performance upgrades.

[0043] It should be understood that, although Figure 1 The steps in the flowchart are shown sequentially as indicated by the arrows, but these steps are not necessarily executed in the order indicated by the arrows. Unless otherwise specified in this document, there is no strict order in which these steps are executed, and they can be performed in other orders. Furthermore, Figure 1At least some of the steps in the process may include multiple sub-steps or multiple stages. These sub-steps or stages are not necessarily completed at the same time, but can be executed at different times. The execution order of these sub-steps or stages is not necessarily sequential, but can be executed in turn or alternately with other steps or at least some of the sub-steps or stages of other steps.

[0044] In one specific embodiment, measured echo data from a small civilian aircraft are used to analyze and verify the method of this application.

[0045] Objective: Fully polarimetric scattering data of the aircraft (1000 snapshots), such as Figure 2 The polarization distribution of the aircraft target and its echo shown in the diagram exhibits significant random fluctuations in polarization.

[0046] Background: Two coherent sources; amplitude ratio a The polarization values ​​were set to 0.5 dB and 1.5 dB respectively (both with a Gaussian perturbation of 0.5 dB standard deviation); the phase difference was set to 180° (with a Gaussian perturbation of 5° standard deviation); the polarization states were set to small-range random perturbations near left-handed circular polarization, where the Jones vector of source 1 satisfies the distribution. ~ N (45°, (1°)2), ~ N (90°, (5°)2), the Jones vector distribution of source 2 satisfies ~ N (42°, (1°)2) and ~N(86°, (5°)2).

[0047] like Figure 3 The curve of the polarization fluctuation factor shown in the figure has a sharp and significant global minimum valley at the target true angle (-1 degree), which intuitively proves the effectiveness and feasibility of the "minimization of polarization fluctuation" criterion.

[0048] like Figure 4 The diagram showing the comparison of azimuth angles between the present application and the prior art in Monte Carlo simulations demonstrates that, under high source intensity ratio (30 dB) conditions, the prior art single-pulse angle measurement method completely fails due to the significant influence of the coherent source, with the estimated value deviating severely from the true value; while the method of the present application can accurately converge to around -1° with minimal estimation deviation and significant performance.

[0049] like Figure 5The diagram shows a comparison of the root mean square error (RMSE) of this application and prior art in Monte Carlo simulations. It can be seen that the RMSE of the proposed method remains below 0.1° even when the background source SNR is greater than 20 dB, and this performance is highly sensitive to changes in the target SNR and the background source amplitude ratio. a and phase perturbation It is insensitive to factors such as these, demonstrating extremely strong environmental robustness.

[0050] like Figure 6 The comparison chart of angle measurement errors under different snapshot values ​​shows that RMSE decreases monotonically with the increase of the number of snapshots. It has reached excellent performance when l=15, which meets the assumption that the target angle is quasi-stationary in a short processing time in practical applications, thus balancing the requirements of performance and real-time performance.

The second module is used to linearly combine the original receiving channels based on the sum signal of the horizontal polarization channel, the difference signal of the horizontal polarization channel, the sum signal of the vertical polarization channel, and the difference signal of the vertical polarization channel to generate a virtual signal for the target search angle.
