The invention discloses a
software-defined
radar full-link integrated
signal processing method, and belongs to the technical field of
radar signal processing. According to the method, a hierarchical decoupling universal hardware platform composed of an AD9361 universal
radio frequency front end, a high-speed
data transmission interface and an FPGA + GPU + CPU heterogeneous computing rear end is constructed, and
software definition of full-link functions such as waveform generation,
signal processing and
synchronous control is achieved. According to the invention, a dual adaptive CFAR detection
algorithm of distance dynamic window +
clutter multi-
algorithm switching is adopted, so that all
clutter environments can be adapted;
nanosecond coherent synchronization of multiple
radar nodes is realized through a GPS taming
clock, and UTC synchronization precision can reach + / -50ns; and multi-
station MIMO cooperative detection is realized through
software-based beam forming. According to the invention, the
instantaneous bandwidth of the radar is improved from 5MHz to 56MHz, the
signal processing delay is reduced from 6.8 microseconds to 1.2 microseconds, the
false alarm rate is reduced from 10 to 10, the research and
development period is shortened from 18-24 months to 6-12 months, and the hardware cost is reduced to 1 / 5-1 / 10 of that of a traditional scheme.
