Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of spaceborne inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) technology, specifically to a method and apparatus for designing ISAR wave positions for airborne targets using space-based radar. Background Technology

[0002] Space-based radar (SBR), with its advantages of global coverage, continuous observation, and independence from national borders and airspace restrictions, plays an increasingly important role in missions such as space situational awareness, aerial target surveillance, and tracking. Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) imaging technology can generate high-resolution two-dimensional images of non-cooperative moving targets (such as aircraft, missiles, and UAVs), making it a key means of target classification, identification, and intent assessment. However, space-based platforms face significantly different technical challenges when performing ISAR imaging of aerial targets compared to ground-based or airborne ISAR imaging. The design of beam positions (i.e., beam pointing, PRF, and sampling delay) directly determines imaging quality, resource utilization efficiency, and mission success or failure.

[0003] In existing ISAR imaging systems, beamwidth design is typically based on the operating modes of ground-based or airborne radars, primarily focusing on parameters such as target range, azimuth variation, and Doppler bandwidth. However, space-based radar platforms orbit the Earth at extremely high speeds, and their relative motion with aerial targets exhibits complex nonlinear and highly dynamic characteristics. On one hand, the high relative speed between space-based radar and targets, reaching thousands of meters per second, means that targets may cross multiple range gates or Doppler cells during beam dwell time, resulting in severe range-crossing cell movement (MTRC). This leads to a large amount of sampled data, necessitating beamwidth design to balance data volume and echo sampling integrity. Furthermore, space-based radars are limited by onboard energy, computing resources, and data downlink bandwidth, requiring efficient target search, tracking, and imaging mode switching within a limited beamwidth dwell time. This places higher demands on the real-time performance and adaptability of beamwidth design.

[0004] Currently, research on ISAR imaging of airborne targets by space-based radar is still in its early stages. Existing literature mainly focuses on improving the imaging algorithm itself (such as time-frequency analysis, compressed sensing, etc.) or wavefront design methods for observation scenarios such as ground-based ISAR and space-based SAR, lacking a systematic wavefront design process and general method.

[0005] For example, patent application CN118209984A discloses a space-based air-to-air maneuvering target ISAR imaging method and device that jointly detects prior information. It mainly includes: preliminary compensation for target motion during imaging based on target position and Doppler velocity; preliminary SAR imaging of the target; and transformation of the imaged data to the range-pulse domain for envelope alignment and phase correction to obtain accurate ISAR imaging results. However, it lacks a description of the space-based radar ISAR wavefront design method for air-to-air maneuvering targets.

[0006] For example, patent application CN116482678A discloses a method, device, and storage medium for optimizing the wavefront positions of space-based radar for sea surface detection. The method includes: determining a target area and arranging wavefront positions within that area; classifying wavefront positions using a coastline database, extracting and filtering cross-coastal wavefront positions; performing land-sea segmentation on the filtered cross-coastal wavefront positions; filtering the segmented cross-coastal wavefront positions again to obtain the cross-coastal wavefront positions requiring optimization; translating the cross-coastal wavefront positions requiring optimization, performing land-sea segmentation again, and determining the optimal solution based on the maximum intersection of the ocean areas before and after segmentation; and conducting sea-based detection. However, this method targets a sea-based detection scenario, while air-based ISAR wavefront position design inherently requires detection of small, moving scenes. Therefore, this patent is not applicable to air-based ISAR wavefront position design. Summary of the Invention

[0007] This invention provides a method and apparatus for designing ISAR wave positions for airborne targets using space-based radar, in order to solve at least one of the aforementioned technical problems.

Based on the wave position design parameters, the maximum time of the first wave position change, the scene width, the position of the space-based radar, the velocity of the space-based radar, and the position of the air target, calculate the oblique angle, synthetic aperture time, number of sampling points, and pulse repetition frequency selection range for the space-based radar to observe the air target. Within the pulse repetition frequency selection range, traverse multiple pulse repetition frequencies and calculate the maximum unambiguous distance at each pulse repetition frequency. Also, calculate the ambiguity number at each pulse repetition frequency based on the observation time. S3, based on the oblique angle, according to the wave position design parameters, the protection time, the scene width, and the maximum unambiguous distance and number of ambiguities at each pulse repetition frequency, calculate the echo delay and the number of nadir points at each pulse repetition frequency, and calculate the start time of the sampling delay to be avoided at each pulse repetition frequency according to the number of nadir points at each pulse repetition frequency. S4, find the absolute value of the echo delay from all pulse repetition frequencies. A small echo delay is used as the sampling delay, and it is checked whether the start time of the sampling delay to be avoided at the pulse repetition frequency corresponding to the sampling delay meets the preset condition. If not, then let The sampling delay continues until the start time of the sampling delay to be avoided at the pulse repetition frequency corresponding to the sampling delay meets a preset condition. If so, the pulse repetition frequency corresponding to the sampling delay is used as the selected pulse repetition frequency; wherein, The initial value is 1; S5. Based on the synthetic aperture time, the number of sampling points, and the maximum unambiguous distance at the selected pulse repetition frequency, calculate the interval time of one phase coherence processing at the selected pulse repetition frequency. S6. Based on the selected pulse repetition frequency, calculate the sampling start and azimuth sampling point number for each coherent processing interval, and accumulate the observation time. S7, determine whether the observation time has reached the synthetic aperture time. If not, return to S2 and repeat until the observation time reaches the synthetic aperture time. If yes, complete all wave positions design.

[0009] Based on the above-mentioned method for designing ISAR wave positions of airborne targets by space-based radar, the present invention also provides a device for designing ISAR wave positions of airborne targets by space-based radar.

[0010] A space-based radar ISAR beam position design device for airborne targets includes a processor, a memory, and a computer program stored in the memory. When the computer program is executed by the processor, it implements the space-based radar ISAR beam position design method for airborne targets as described above.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention provides a method and apparatus for ISAR (Infrastructure SAR) beam design for space-based radar targets, applicable to ISAR beam design for space-based radar targets. By dividing the synthetic aperture time into pulse repetition frequencies (PRFs) and the coherent processing interval (CPI) within a single pulse repetition frequency observation, multi-beam design is adaptively achieved, suitable for beam design in both frontal and rearward oblique viewing scenarios. Furthermore, the beam design considers avoiding nadir echoes and transmitted pulses, thus achieving nadir clutter avoidance. This invention is applicable to the acquisition of broadband imaging echo data of space-based radar targets, providing the prerequisite and possibility for space-based airborne ISAR imaging.

Within the pulse repetition frequency selection range, traverse multiple pulse repetition frequencies and calculate the maximum unambiguous distance at each pulse repetition frequency. Also, calculate the ambiguity number at each pulse repetition frequency based on the observation time. S3, based on the oblique angle, according to the wave position design parameters, the protection time, the scene width, and the maximum unambiguous distance and number of ambiguities at each pulse repetition frequency, calculate the echo delay and the number of nadir points at each pulse repetition frequency, and calculate the start time of the sampling delay to be avoided at each pulse repetition frequency according to the number of nadir points at each pulse repetition frequency. S4, find the absolute value of the echo delay from all pulse repetition frequencies. A small echo delay is used as the sampling delay, and it is checked whether the start time of the sampling delay to be avoided at the pulse repetition frequency corresponding to the sampling delay meets the preset condition. If not, then let The sampling delay continues until the start time of the sampling delay to be avoided at the pulse repetition frequency corresponding to the sampling delay meets a preset condition. If so, the pulse repetition frequency corresponding to the sampling delay is used as the selected pulse repetition frequency; wherein, The initial value is 1; S5. Based on the synthetic aperture time, the number of sampling points, and the maximum unambiguous distance at the selected pulse repetition frequency, calculate the interval time of one phase coherence processing at the selected pulse repetition frequency. S6. Based on the selected pulse repetition frequency, calculate the sampling start and azimuth sampling point number for each coherent processing interval, and accumulate the observation time. S7, determine whether the observation time has reached the synthetic aperture time. If not, return to S2 and repeat until the observation time reaches the synthetic aperture time. If yes, complete all wave positions design.

[0015] In this invention, a space-based radar ISAR (Infrastructure SAR) beam design method for airborne targets is proposed. By dividing the synthetic aperture time into pulse repetition frequencies (PRFs) and the coherent processing interval (CPI) within a single pulse repetition frequency observation, multi-beam design is adaptively achieved. This method is applicable to beam design for both frontal and oblique-looking observation scenarios. Furthermore, the beam design considers avoiding nadir echoes and transmitted pulses, thus achieving nadir clutter avoidance.

[0018] Maximum time of one waveform change (Also known as CPI_Time), will The advantage of setting a large value is that it may reduce the number of waveforms, but the disadvantage is that the migration within a single CPI (correlation interval) is larger, and the sampling pressure in the distance direction is greater. A balance needs to be struck in the design.

[0030] The formula for calculating the fuzzy number of the under-star point is: (11) In the formula, The first one selected within the pulse repetition frequency selection range Number of nadir points at a pulse repetition frequency This is the vector of the sub-satellite point for space-based radar.

[0031] Sampling delay start time needs to be avoided The calculation formula is: (12) Additionally, based on the starting time of the sampling delay to be avoided The end time of the sampling delay that needs to be avoided can be calculated. Among these, it is necessary to avoid delaying the end time of sampling. The calculation formula is: (13) and The design must avoid sampling delay.

[0032] In S4, the preferred embodiment is as follows: When the oblique angle When the value is less than 0, the preset condition is: (14) When the oblique angle When the value is greater than 0, the default condition is: (15) Specifically, S4 is the step of screening pulse repetition frequencies, and the screened pulse repetition frequencies are defined as the selected pulse repetition frequencies. In this step, if Then the following judgment is made: find the one with the smallest absolute value. ,examine Is it true? If so, then select the one with the smallest absolute value.
