Specifically, transmitter module 110 is for producing the transmitting signal needed for radar.
Shown in Fig. 2, Anneta module 120 includes the transmitting antenna being made up of single array element and the reception antenna being made up of multiple reception array elements.Wherein, transmitting antenna is used for sending transmitting signal to scan target, and reception antenna is used for receiving target echo.In one embodiment of the invention, the signal radar signal x for example with Continuous Wave with frequency modulation is launched0(t), and more specifically,
x0(t)=exp{j2π(f0t+φ(t))},φ(t)=αt2/ 2,0≤t < T,
Wherein, f0For transmitting carrier frequency, frequency modulation rate B/T, B that α is Continuous Wave with frequency modulation are transmitting signal swept bandwidth, and T is the transmitting cycle.Further, in another embodiment, launching signal after target reflection, reflected signal is received by reception antenna.In a concrete example, as shown in Figure 4, wherein left figure show launch signal and target echo frequency over time, wherein solid line represents transmitting signal, and dotted line represents target echo.As can be seen from Figure 4 under the system of Continuous Wave with frequency modulation, will there is a stable difference on the frequency η in the receiving and transmitting signal of time phase difference Δ t, namely relevant with speed with the distance of target frequency of distance.In Fig. 4, right figure represents that the different array element that receives receives the difference of signal, and reception array element distance is d, is the target of θ for azimuth, and the wave path-difference that adjacent reception antenna receives is dsin θ.Further, in specific implementation process, receive array element by the spatial order receiving array element to M and be numbered, then kth receives the target echo x that array element receiveskT () is represented by following formula:
xk(t)=a0x0(t-tk),tk=2(r+vt)/c+τkk=(dsin θ/c) (k-1), k=1 ..., M,
Wherein, k represents that kth receives array element, and r, v, θ respectively target is relative to the distance of radar, radial velocity and orientation, a0Representing target reflection factor, c is the light velocity, and d is for receiving array element distance, τkRepresent the time delay that kth array element arrives relative to the 1st array element reflected signal.
As a concrete example, in specific implementation process, above-mentioned transmitting antenna is for observing the target in its front one orientation.In conjunction with, shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, specifically, adopting superposed single array element to constitute transmitting antenna, be positioned at M reception array element composition reception antenna of bottom, single reception passage is adopted time-multiplexed structure by each array element that receives.In the specific implementation, transmitting antenna produces the transmitting signal of Continuous Wave with frequency modulation, and when being irradiated to target, feedback reflector signal, M road receives array element and receives target echo.
Switch module 130 includes the multiple gating switches being connected with multiple reception array element one_to_one corresponding, multiple gating switches control multiple reception array elements and are connected with single reception passage, in the specific implementation, multiple gating switches switch at random, so that the target echo in the reception array element being connected with the gating switch of current conducting takies reception passage.In other words, the target echo that namely respectively reception array element receives needs to merge into a road signal in reception passage.
As a concrete example, M receives array element and adopts time-multiplexed mode to use one to receive passage, each reception array element adopts the mode of random switching, and switching mode is (situation here for M=7) as shown in Figure 5.The mode that reflected signal merges is for using one group of gating switch, and each reception array element can use a corresponding connected switching gate.When kth gating switch turns on, kth receives the target echo of array element reception will take reception passage.Further, have only to switch the state of this group gating switch by the mode of random switching, and ensure that each moment only one of which gating switch is conducting state, so that it may so that each road receive the target echo timesharing that array element receives take reception passage, merge into a road signal receiving in passage.More specifically, wherein, each gating switch is T in the retention time of conducting statesw, it is called a time division multiplex interval.When there being M to receive array element, by the equal gating of gating switch corresponding for each reception array element once, the target echo that each reception array element receives is made all to take T in receiving passageswTime, thus MTswTime be called a rotational cycle.Further, each transmitting cycle T is made up of multiple complete rotational cycles.On the other hand, namely above-mentioned random switching mode refers to and all uses a random sequence generator in each rotational cycle, is undertaken randomly ordered by the numbering of M gating switch, and each gating switch is according to this random sequence gating T successivelyswTime, the corresponding target echo receiving array element reception receives one time division multiplex interval T of passage according to this random taking of sequence timesharingsw.Wherein, in a receiving cycle, including multiple complete rotational cycles, after a rotational cycle terminates, immediately enter next rotational cycle.
Receiver module 140 is for being mixed the target echo of synthesis in single reception passage with launching signal, and the signal after mixing is carried out intermediate frequency amplification and bandpass filtering treatment, obtains intermediate-freuqncy signal.
As a concrete example, in one embodiment of the invention, according to the random switching mode designed, M is madenkRepresent and the n-th rotational cycle occupies in kth time division multiplex interval the reception array element numbering receiving passage.When there being a target in scene, each target is relative to the distance of radar system 100, radial velocity, angle and reflection coefficient respectively r, v, θ and a0, orderη represents frequency of distance.Wherein, the frequency of distance of each target and the speed of target and distance dependent, when target is static, frequency of distance is only determined by distance, and therefore frequency of distance is a kind of reflection (can be respectively obtained distance and the speed of target by the method for target range, speed decoupling) to target range.Further, orderReception channel noise is n (t), then now target echo passes through mixing, the signal y after mixing with launching signalnkT () can be represented by equation below:
ynk(t)=aexp{-j(2πη(((n-1)M+(k-1))Tsw+t-((n-1)M+(k-1))Tsw))}·
exp{-j(2π(dsinθ/λ)(Mnk-1))}+n(t),
((n-1)M+(k-1))Tsw≤t<((n-1)M+k)Tsw,
Wherein, MnkRepresenting and occupy the array element numbering receiving passage in the n-th rotational cycle in kth time division multiplex interval, η is called frequency of distance, andR, v, θ and a0Represent respectively each target relative to radar system 100 distance, radial velocity, angle and reflection coefficient, n (t) is for receiving channel noise.
Further, to the signal y after above-mentioned mixingnkT () carries out intermediate frequency and amplifies and obtain intermediate-freuqncy signal after bandpass filtering.
Processing module 150 for carrying out digital sample to intermediate-freuqncy signal, and carry out subsequent treatment and obtain the information of target.Specifically, in one embodiment of the invention, processing module 150, for intermediate-freuqncy signal is carried out digital sample, obtains digital signal ynk.As a concrete example, for instance adopt sample frequency fsIntermediate-freuqncy signal is carried out digital sample, with the digital signal y after being samplednk.Further, make ω=sin θ, and calculate this digital signal ynkAuto-correlation function (i.e. ambiguity function) χ (Δ η, Δ ω) in frequency of distance-orientation, wherein, this auto-correlation function (ambiguity function) χ (Δ η, Δ ω) can be calculated by equation below:
&chi; ( &Delta;&eta; , &Delta;&omega; ) = &Sigma; n = 1 N &Sigma; k = 1 K + 2 &pi; ( d&Delta;&omega; / &lambda; ) ( M nk - 1 ) ) } exp { - j ( 2 &pi;&Delta;&eta; ( ( ( n - 1 ) M + ( k - 1 ) T sw ) ,
Wherein, TswRepresenting the conducting state retention time of each gating switch, M represents the quantity receiving array element.Further, the performance of radar system 100 can be analyzed according to this auto-correlation function (ambiguity function) χ (Δ η, Δ ω).
In addition, it is necessary to illustrate, when random switching, ambiguity function is needle-like, the problem being absent from time and space usage, and further, the not ambiguity interval in frequency of distance reaches (-fs/2,fs/2)。
Further, in order to the advantage of random switching is described, the ambiguity function of switching at random with order switching is contrasted.Specifically, order switching, refer in a rotational cycle, switch switch according to the order of the corresponding array element numbering of switch, in each rotational cycle, be sequentially switched to M from 1.As a concrete example, order switching contrasts as shown in Figure 6 with random switching ambiguity function.Abscissa in Fig. 6 represents by the normalized frequency of distance increment Delta η/f of sample frequencys, vertical coordinate represents the increment Delta ω in orientation.Wherein, when left figure is order switching, the ambiguity function interval f on the diagonal of order switchingsThere are multiple peak values in/M, and this will cause fuzzy problem in the frequency of distance Combined estimator with orientation, and the not ambiguity interval in frequency of distance is (-fs/2M,fs/2M).When right figure is random switching, ambiguity function presents figure spike, and the problem being absent from time and space usage, the not ambiguity interval in frequency of distance reaches (-fs/2,fs/2).Therefore, the mode of random switching efficiently solves the problem of time and space usage, and when identical sample rate, the not ambiguity interval in frequency of distance expands to M times of order switching.
The information such as the frequency modulated continuous wave radar system based on random switching array antenna according to embodiments of the present invention, adopts the system of Continuous Wave with frequency modulation, and target and terrain environment to scene are detected, it is possible to effective range-to-go, speed, orientation.Additionally, this system adopts the structure of random switching array antenna, multiple reception antenna time division multiplexes one are made to receive passage, namely single reception passage is used, within a signal transmitting cycle, the echo-signal (target echo) that each reception array-element antenna is received by speed-sensitive switch switching is adopted to carry out gating, thus effectively reducing radar system cost and complexity, and the problem efficiently solving the time and space usage that order switching switch brings.It addition, when switching switching rate and system bandwidth is limited, use the random mode switching gating switch, increase the not fuzzy distance of radar surveying, reduce the requirement to switch switching rate and system bandwidth.
