The invention provides an exogenous
radar target detection method and
system based on a
sparse model, and relates to the technical field of
radar signal processing, and the method comprises the steps: receiving a
time domain monitoring
signal of an
orthogonal frequency division multiplexing waveform, carrying out the
discrete Fourier transform, obtaining a carrier domain monitoring
signal, and extracting data at a
pilot frequency position; constructing a carrier domain reference signal based on known transmitting end
pilot frequency information; carrying out
clutter suppression
processing on the carrier domain monitoring signal; performing
inverse discrete Fourier transform on the carrier domain monitoring signal and the carrier domain reference signal, reconstructing a new
time domain reference signal and a new
time domain monitoring signal, and performing distance
processing to obtain distance domain data; according to the method, only
pilot frequency information is utilized to construct reference signals, direct
waves do not need to be accurately estimated, and the
system complexity is greatly reduced; and
clutter suppression is introduced before sparse modeling, so that the problem that strong clutters cover weak targets is effectively solved.
