Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic countermeasures technology, and in particular to a method and system for deceiving interferometric direction finding systems based on a subarray MIMO frequency control array. Background Technology
[0002] Electronic reconnaissance is a crucial component of electronic warfare, and one of its core tasks is to achieve direction finding and location by intercepting enemy radiation source signals. Traditional active radars rely on actively radiating electromagnetic waves to detect targets, making them vulnerable to interception and location by enemy passive reconnaissance systems, thus threatening the radar platform's survival. Therefore, researching new radar systems with low interception probability and high countermeasure capabilities is of great significance. Interferometric direction finding systems are a typical type of passive direction finding device. They estimate azimuth by measuring the phase difference between different receiving channels of the incoming wave signal, offering advantages such as high direction finding accuracy and fast response speed. For traditional single-carrier or phased array radiated signals, due to their approximate regular far-field wavefront, interferometric direction finding systems can usually accurately calculate the direction of arrival, making it difficult to effectively deceive them.

Its beam direction changes over time, forming a unique "S"-shaped beam pattern, which helps to deceive reconnaissance equipment and reduce the probability of detection and interception. Meanwhile, in frequency-domain orthogonal MIMO radar, phase wavefront distortion causes phase gradient deviation angles, leading to errors in the measurement results of passive interferometric direction finding systems. The combination of multiple subarrays not only alters the spatial distribution of the far-field wavefront but also further enhances the adjustability of the phase gradient deviation, making the interferometric direction finding system more prone to systematic angular deviations.
[0095] This invention proposes an angle deception method for interferometric direction finding systems based on a subarray MIMO frequency control array, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes the following steps:

[0212] Substituting the phase difference obtained from equation (44) in step S3 into equation (45), we get:
[0213] (46)
[0214] Define the interferometric direction finding angle deviation as:
[0215] (47)
[0216] The deviation can be approximated as:
[0217] (48)
[0218] In this example, the base carrier frequency is set. for The element spacing is half a wavelength. The spacing between two elements in the interferometric direction finding system is similar to the element spacing, and the subarray spacing is set to ten times the element spacing. Both the subarray spacing and the element spacing are much smaller than the distance between the radiation source and the interferometric direction finding system, thus satisfying the approximation conditions in the aforementioned steps. With the true incident angle set to 30°, the number of elements, subarrays, distance, and frequency offset are varied, and the changes in direction finding error and the deception effect are compared under different conditions. Figure 3 This study demonstrates the impact of inter-element frequency offset on the deception effect of interferometric direction-finding systems under different array types. Figure 3 It can be concluded that for MIMO frequency-controlled array radar, the angle measurement error of the interferometric direction finding system increases slowly with the increase of the inter-element frequency offset; under the same frequency offset conditions, the more subarrays there are, the more obvious the angle deviation. Compared with frequency-controlled array radar without subarrays and MIMO radar, multi-subarray MIMO frequency-controlled array radar has a better deception effect on interferometric direction finding systems. Figure 4The effects of different carrier frequency variations between subarrays on the deception effect of the interferometric direction-finding system were compared. Figure 4 It can be concluded that increasing the carrier frequency between different subarrays can significantly improve the angle deception effect, and MIMO frequency-controlled array radar exhibits better deception performance than frequency-controlled array radar without subarrays and MIMO radar. Figure 5 The influence of distance on the angle deception effect of the interferometric direction finding system under different array element numbers was compared. Figure 5 It can be concluded that the more array elements there are, the better the angle deception effect. Figure 6 The effects of distance on the angular deception effect of the interferometric direction finding system under different array configurations were compared. Figure 6 It can be concluded that the more subarrays there are, the better the angle deception effect, and the MIMO frequency-controlled array radar has a better angle deception effect on the interferometric direction finding system than the frequency-controlled array radar without subarrays and the MIMO radar.
