Time-domain adaptive beamforming of HF backscatter radar signals 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Experimental results relating to the use of time-domain, continuously adapting beamformers in an HF bistatic FM/CW backscatter radar system are presented. Data for the study were obtained using the Wide Aperture HF Radio Research Facility (WARF) which is located in the central valley of California and is operated by Stanford Research Institute, Menlo Park, CA. Eastward-looking transmissions were employed with an operating frequency chosen so as to provide single-hop ionospheric propagation on both the forward and backscatter paths. Digital real-time recordings were taken at eight received subarray outputs. These recordings were then processed off-line using a large general purpose computer. The beamforming methods studied, however, are computationally simple and may be readily implemented in real-time using a commercially available minicomputer. Two adaptive algorithms were studied and in both cases it was shown that signal-to-noise ratio improvements of 10 to 15 dB are readily achieved when adaptive beamforming is compared with conventional, Dolph taper beamforming methods using identical received data in an HF backscatter environment. It was also demonstrated that the time scale of coefficient variation in an adaptive processor operating in this environment is the order of 1 s. Successful tracking of the adaptive algorithm under these conditions was demonstrated. The use of moving target indication (MTI) clutter suppression filters at the subarray outputs, prior to adaptation, was investigated. No significant improvement was observed with the use of these filters on experimental data. Finally, it was shown that the presence of fading nulls can significantly affect the determination of optimal subarray location and spacing in an HF environment. In general, the adaptive beamformer performance was found to be less dependent upon array geometry than was the case for conventional processing. 相似文献

Space-time adaptive processing (STAP) techniques provide simultaneous rejection of jamming and clutter in airborne radar. The greatest benefits over conventional MTI (moving target indication) approaches are in terms of a capability to detect slow-moving targets which possess the same Doppler frequency as mainlobe clutter returns. This paper examines the effects of platform manoeuvre on STAP clutter and jamming rejection performance for a forward-facing array (i.e. where the array is orientated transversally to the direction of travel). It is shown that STAP slow-target detection performance is not sensitive to the radar platform orientation. It is also demonstrated that, under conditions of manoeuvre, STAP can provide better jammer rejection performance than architectures which cascade conventional clutter filtering and spatial adaptive beamforming 相似文献

The detection of slowly moving targets by air- and spaceborne MTI radar is heavily degraded by the motion-induced Doppler spread of clutter returns. Space-time adaptive processing (STAP) can achieve optimum clutter rejection via implicit platform motion compensation. The fundamentals and properties of STAP applied to air- and spaceborne MTI radar are summarised 相似文献

由于天基雷达覆盖范围广,大量强离散杂波(小型岛礁、陆地铁塔等)会从天线旁瓣进入雷达系统,其多普勒特征与目标相同,极易造成虚警。针对以上问题,该文提出基于空时导向约束的天基雷达离散旁瓣杂波判别方法,该方法首先选取空时自适应处理(STAP)杂波抑制后检测到的潜在“目标”(包含真实目标与离散旁瓣杂波)距离多普勒单元及其附近单元;然后根据杂波多普勒频率与空间角度的耦合关系获得各杂波单元对应的空时导向矢量;最后利用获得新的导向矢量构成的滤波器再次对“目标”距离多普勒单元及其附近单元进行滤波处理,此时真实目标信杂噪比会大幅度降低,而离散旁瓣杂波信杂噪比变化不大,从而实现离散旁瓣杂波的判别。理论分析及机载实测数据处理证明该方法具有良好的稳健性和可靠性。 相似文献

We present an adaptive algorithm aimed at detecting multiple point-like radar targets embedded in correlated Gaussian noise. The proposed detector modifies and improves the adaptive beamformer orthogonal rejection test (ABORT) idea to address detection of multiple targets. More precisely, it relies on the so-called two-step generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) design procedure implemented without assignment of a distinct set of secondary data. The newly proposed detector can guarantee the constant false alarm rate (CFAR) property and the performance assessment, conducted resorting to simulated data, has shown that it exhibits better rejection capabilities of mismatched signals than previously proposed detectors, at the price of an acceptable performance loss for matched signals 相似文献

Time Reversal Imaging by Adaptive Interference Canceling 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We develop the time reversal adaptive interference canceler (TRAIC) time reversal beamformer (TRBF), a new algorithm to detect and locate targets in rich scattering environments. It utilizes time reversal in two stages: (1) Anti-focusing: TRAIC time reverses and then reshapes the clutter backscatter to mitigate the clutter response; (2) Focusing: TRBF time reverses the residual backscatter to focus the radar image on the target. Laboratory experiments with electromagnetic radar data in a highly cluttered environment confirm the superiority of TRAIC-TRBF over conventional direct subtraction (DS) beamform imaging. 相似文献

Cancellation of the ground clutter received at an airborne phased array radar is an inherently two dimensional problem. Clutter returns are Doppler shifted due to platform motion forcing the use of processors that can resolve targets in both velocity (Doppler) and azimuth. Fully adaptive processors that operate in both dimensions require prohibitively large computation so that reduced adaptive dimension, or partially adaptive processors must be considered. In conventional partially adaptive linearly constrained minimum variance (LCMV) beamformer design the approach taken has been to represent the interference subspace with some reduced set of vectors, typically the eigenvectors associated with the largest eigenvalues of the interference covariance matrix. This technique does yield good performance but will not give the optimum performance for a given partially adaptive dimension. In this paper, an off-line method for selecting the “best” degrees of freedom to be retained in a partially adaptive design is presented. The sequential algorithm described selects those degrees of freedom that best minimize the beamformer output mean square error. This approach leads to a sparse structure for the transformation matrix, which when implemented in a generalized sidelobe canceller (GSC) structure results in a reduction in the computational load. This approach also allows a reduction in the required adaptive dimension as compared to the eigenvector based approach. Illustrative examples demonstrate the effectiveness of this method 相似文献
