Description

Radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model parameter estimation method and device
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of signal processing, in particular to a method and a device for estimating parameters of a radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model, which can be used for radar target detection under a clutter background.
Background
Modern radars usually use higher resolution to improve the performance of detecting and identifying weak and small targets, and at this time, the non-gaussian characteristic of the echo amplitude distribution is very significant. In order to improve the goodness of fit between a theoretical model and an empirical Probability Density Function (PDF) of measured data, some two-parameter, three-parameter or multi-parameter non-Gaussian models are applied to radar echo amplitude distribution modeling. From the perspective of the number of model components, the single-component amplitude distribution model is a class of models that are more applied and in most cases work better. The models have a common characteristic that only a single component is adopted to model the radar echo in a mathematical form, and although the contributions of different types of scattering components may be considered in the model establishing process (for example, a composite Gaussian model respectively considers the scattering components of sea surface gravity waves and tension waves and models the scattering components into texture components and speckle components), the final distribution model is in a single-component form.
Typical single component models that are used more often mainly include lognormal, weibull, K, GK (texture component modeling is a complex Gaussian model of generalized Gamma distribution), GK-LNT (texture component modeling is a complex Gaussian model of lognormal distribution), CG-IG (texture component modeling is a complex Gaussian model of inverse Gaussian distribution), CG-GIG (texture component modeling is a complex Gaussian model of generalized inverse Gaussian distribution), Pareto (texture component modeling is a complex Gaussian model of inverse Gamma distribution). Under the conditions that the noise-to-noise ratio (CNR) is low (less than 5dB) and the thermal noise is not negligible, the influence of the thermal noise needs to be considered in a model, and the corresponding model mainly comprises K + noise, GK-LNT + noise, CG-IG + noise and Pareto + noise. A large amount of measured data of radar echoes prove that one or more of the 12 single-component models can meet the modeling precision requirement under most conditions, especially under the condition of low sea state (grade 3 and below).
In the radar target detection, the detection threshold is closely related to model parameters and modeling precision, so that how to apply echo data to realize effective parameter estimation and select a better candidate model from various single-component amplitude distribution models has important theoretical and practical engineering application values for better determining the detection threshold and obtaining better detection performance. In the prior art, a parameter estimation method of a single-component amplitude distribution model is mostly established on the basis of theoretical model characteristic quantity closed expression derivation, such as derivation of each moment, derivation of a maximum likelihood function, and the like. When there are abnormal samples in the echo data, the parameter estimation error is large. Therefore, the related patents apply the quantiles to model parameter estimation, such as a double quantile estimation method of sea clutter Pareto amplitude distribution parameters, a multi-quantile estimation method of sea clutter Weibull amplitude distribution parameters, a double quantile estimation method of sea clutter K distribution shape parameters, a generalized Pareto distribution parameter joint double quantile estimation method, a generalized Pareto distribution parameter explicit double quantile estimation method, a quantile estimation method and process based on inverse Gaussian texture sea clutter amplitude distribution parameters, and a quantile estimation method and process of sea clutter amplitude log-normal distribution parameters. The method can effectively overcome the influence of abnormal samples, but the number of the applied quantiles is at most 3, so that the utilization rate of the information of the quantile of the echo data is insufficient. Meanwhile, the parameter estimation method based on the quantile still cannot separate the derivation of the relational expression of the quantile and the model parameter, so that the parameter estimation precision strictly depends on the characteristic quantity of the theoretical model, the applicability of the parameter estimation method is poor, and the requirement of practical engineering application is difficult to meet.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
In the radar echo amplitude distribution modeling, the single component amplitude distribution models generally used mainly include lognormal distribution, weibull distribution, K distribution, GK distribution (texture component modeling is a complex Gaussian model of generalized Gaussian distribution), GK-LNT distribution (texture component modeling is a complex Gaussian model of lognormal distribution), CG-IG distribution (texture component modeling is a complex Gaussian model of inverse Gaussian distribution), CG-GIG distribution (texture component modeling is a complex Gaussian model of generalized inverse Gaussian distribution), Pareto distribution (texture component modeling is a complex Gaussian model of inverse Gamma distribution). Under the conditions that the noise-to-noise ratio (CNR) is low (less than 5dB) and the thermal noise is not negligible, the influence of the thermal noise needs to be considered in the model, and the corresponding model mainly comprises K + noise distribution, GK-LNT + noise distribution, CG-IG + noise distribution and Pareto + noise distribution. A large amount of measured data of radar echoes prove that one or more of the 12 single-component models can meet the modeling precision requirement under most conditions, especially under the condition of low sea state.
Each single-component amplitude distribution model corresponds to a plurality of parameter estimation methods. For example, for the K-distribution model, corresponding parameter estimation methods include maximum likelihood estimation, first order/second order moment estimation, second order/fourth order moment estimation, second order/fractional order moment estimation, geometric/arithmetic mean estimation, Log-type I estimation, Log-type II estimation, Log-type III estimation, maximum likelihood/moment estimation, moment estimation/neural network estimation, deep neural network estimation, Parameterized Curve Fitting Estimation (PCFE), and the like. The parameter estimation method is mostly established on the basis of theoretical model characteristic quantity closed expression derivation, such as derivation of each order moment, derivation of a maximum likelihood function and the like, and the accuracy of parameter estimation strictly depends on the model characteristic quantity, so that the applicability of the parameter estimation method is limited.
In view of the deficiency of the prior art, fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a method for estimating parameters of a radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes:
step 110, determining an empirical CCDF, an empirical CCDF interval range and corresponding empirical quantile points based on radar echo data; CCDF is a complementary cumulative distribution function;
specifically, CCDF is an abbreviation of Complementary Cumulative distribution function (Complementary Cumulative distributing function). According to the radar echo data, an empirical CCDF (combined cycle-resolved Doppler) can be obtained by adopting a histogram statistical method, and the range of the empirical CCDF interval and the corresponding empirical quantile point are determined according to the data point number of the echo data and the radar false alarm probability.
Step 120, determining an initial theoretical CCDF based on initial parameters of the radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model;
specifically, the initial parameters of the radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model can be obtained by a preset parameter estimation method, and the typical parameter values can also be used as the initial parameters of the model. Substituting the initial parameters into the model theoretical expression to obtain initial theoretical PDF (Probability Density Function) and initial theoretical CDF (Cumulative Distribution Function) of the single-component amplitude Distribution model, respectively using pR(r) and PR(r) is as follows. On this basis, the initial theoretical CCDF can be obtained.
Step 130, determining an initial theoretical quantile corresponding to each empirical quantile within the range of the empirical CCDF interval based on each empirical CCDF value within the range of the empirical CCDF interval and each initial theoretical CCDF value of which the difference value with each empirical CCDF value is within a preset difference value range;
specifically, the CCDF value is the complementary cumulative distribution function value. According to the CCDF function relation, the CCDF value can be converted into the quantile point corresponding to the function value.
And for any empirical CCDF value within the range of the empirical CCDF interval, determining an initial theoretical CCDF value, and if the difference between the initial theoretical CCDF value and the empirical CCDF value is within a preset difference range, considering that the initial theoretical CCDF value is adjacent to the empirical CCDF value. The preset difference may be set according to actual conditions, and this is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
And for each empirical CCDF value in the range of the empirical CCDF interval, respectively counting the initial theoretical CCDF value adjacent to the empirical CCDF value, converting the adjacent initial theoretical CCDF value into the initial theoretical quantile, and obtaining a group of initial theoretical quantiles corresponding to the empirical quantiles one by one after the conversion is completed.
And 140, taking all the empirical quantiles in the empirical CCDF interval range and the theoretical quantile errors corresponding to the empirical CCDF interval range as a target function, taking the initial parameters as initial values, and performing iterative optimization on the model parameters of the radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model by adopting a numerical optimization method to obtain the parameter estimation value of the radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model.
Specifically, for a radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model, an initial parameter is used as an initial value, the minimum error of each empirical quantile and a corresponding theoretical quantile in an empirical CCDF interval range is used as a target function, and a numerical optimization method is adopted to carry out iterative search solution in a parameter space corresponding to the model. And in each iteration, new model parameters are obtained and updated to the initial parameters of the model in the next iteration. The iterative search algorithm may adopt a Nelder-mead (nm) simplex search method, and the selection of the iterative search algorithm in the embodiment of the present invention is not particularly limited.
If the errors of all the empirical quantiles and the corresponding theoretical quantiles in the range of the empirical CCDF interval are smaller than a preset error value or the iterative search times are greater than preset solving times, the difference between the empirical quantile and the corresponding theoretical quantile is considered to be minimized, and the iterative optimization algorithm is converged; otherwise, the iterative solution process is continued.
And after the iterative solving process is finished, taking the finally iterated parameters as parameter estimation values of the radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model, substituting the parameter estimation values into a model theoretical expression, and obtaining a final theoretical PDF (Portable document Format) and theoretical CDF (compact disc) modeling result. And in different scanning periods and detection areas, the received echo data are respectively utilized to carry out model parameter estimation, so that model parameter updating is realized.
For distribution models such as lognormal, Weibull, K, GK-LNT, CG-IG and Pareto, the number of model parameters is two, and the corresponding parameter space is a two-dimensional parameter space; for distribution models such as GK, CG-GIG, K + noise, GK-LNT + noise, CG-IG + noise and Pareto + noise, the number of model parameters is three, and the corresponding parameter space is a three-dimensional parameter space.
And performing subsequent processing on the echo data by using the amplitude distribution of the echo data represented by the modeling result. The radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model obtained by using the parameter estimation method in the embodiment can be applied to radar target detection, and the method specifically comprises the following steps: determining a quantile point corresponding to the false alarm probability according to the preset false alarm probability and the theoretical CCDF, taking the quantile point as a theoretical detection threshold, judging whether a target exists or not according to the relation between the amplitude of echo data received by the current radar and the theoretical detection threshold, if the target exists or not, judging that the target does not exist. Compared with the existing parameter estimation method, the parameter estimation method provided by the embodiment is specially optimized for the amplitude distribution tailing area, and can suppress the influence of abnormal samples, so that the obtained theoretical CCDF model curve has higher goodness of fit with the actually-measured data empirical CCDF curve in the tailing area, the detection threshold obtained according to the theoretical CCDF model better conforms to the radar echo characteristics, and the method has an obvious effect of reducing the actual false alarm probability.
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a detection threshold loss situation when different parameter estimation methods are applied in a radar echo single component amplitude distribution model parameter estimation method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, where r1And r2Method for estimating different parameters respectively representing same single component modelLoss of detection threshold under conditions. It can be seen that the model obtained by the parameter estimation method of the embodiment has smaller detection threshold loss and is very beneficial to target detection.
According to the method for estimating the parameters of the radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model, provided by the embodiment of the invention, the parameter of the radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model is iteratively optimized by determining the empirical CCDF interval range of radar echo data and minimizing the errors of all empirical quantiles and corresponding theoretical quantiles in the empirical CCDF interval range as a target function, so that the parameter estimation value of the model is obtained, a mode of combining multi-quantile points and numerical optimization is adopted in the parameter estimation process, a closed expression between the quantile points and the parameters of the distribution model is not required to be deduced, the method has universal applicability to the parameter estimation of the radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model, and can meet the requirements of practical engineering application.
Based on the above embodiment, step 110 includes:
determining the number of divisions of a statistical interval and an empirical CCDF based on radar echo data;
and determining the range of the empirical CCDF interval and the corresponding empirical quantile point based on the data point number of the radar echo data and the radar false alarm probability.
In particular, for each coherent burst echo sequence X ═ (X) received by the radar1,x2,…,xN) And N is the number of data points. If the sequence is a complex number formed by I and Q channel data, firstly, taking a module of the I and Q channel data to obtain an envelope amplitude data sequence. And if the radar works in a scanning mode, extracting echo data in a pulse dimension and a distance dimension to obtain a data matrix, and converting the data matrix into a one-dimensional data vector. And if the radar works in a staring mode, extracting echo data in a pulse dimension to obtain a one-dimensional data vector. In order to ensure the model accuracy, the number of data points N of the echo data should be greater than a preset value, such as 2000.
And determining the division number of the statistical interval according to the number of echo data points.
For example, the division number is the number of data points of the echo data divided by a preset constant, such as 10. It is also possible to divide the number of data points of the echo data by a preset constant as an upper limit of the division number, and another preset constant as a lower limit of the division number, for example, the division number ranges from 50 to N/10, and arbitrarily take a value from this range as the division number.
Then, the maximum value and the minimum value of the echo amplitude are counted, and the echo amplitude range is divided into statistical intervals with equal intervals according to the division number of the statistical intervals in the echo amplitude range determined by the maximum value and the minimum value.
Obtaining the empirical PDF of the echo data by a histogram statistical method, which is expressed as
Figure BDA0002577400490000111
Integrate it to obtain an empirical CDF, expressed as
Figure BDA0002577400490000112
Further empirical CCDF was obtained, formulated as:
Figure BDA0002577400490000113
according to the number N of data points and the radar false alarm probability PfaAnd determining the range of the empirical CCDF interval corresponding to the empirical CCDF. Wherein the false alarm probability PfaWhen the threshold detection method is adopted in the radar detection process, due to the common existence and fluctuation of clutter, the probability that a target does not exist actually but is judged to be a target exists. The false alarm probability may be adjusted by adjusting the threshold value of the radar detection.
The lower limit of the range of the empirical CCDF interval is used for ensuring the accuracy of the statistical result and simultaneously has a certain inhibiting effect on abnormal samples. In terms of compromise, the lower limit of the range of the CCDF interval is [ C1/N, C2/N ], wherein C1 and C2 are preset constants, C1 is less than C2, for example, C1 is 10, and C2 is 100.
The upper limit of the range of the empirical CCDF interval corresponds to the starting point of the tailing area of the empirical CCDF curve, which is related to the false alarm probability PfaThe setting and its corresponding threshold value. The threshold value corresponding to the false alarm probability in the theoretical CCDF curve should be compared with the empirical CCDThe threshold values obtained by F are as consistent as possible. To ensure accuracy, the upper limit of the interval is greater than the false alarm probability Pfa. Verified that the upper limit value range of the CCDF interval is [ C3P ]fa,C4*Pfa]Wherein C3 and C4 are predetermined constants, C3 is smaller than C4, e.g., C3 is 10 and C4 is 100.
In summary, the lower limit of the range of CCDF interval is [ C1/N, C2/N]One value is taken as the lower limit of the CCDF interval range, and the corresponding amplitude interval number is Q. The upper limit of the range of CCDF interval is [ C3P ]fa,C4*Pfa]One value is taken as the upper limit of the range of the CCDF interval, and the corresponding amplitude interval is numbered as q.
Further, the quantile of the range of the empirical CCDF interval may be determined based on the range of the empirical CCDF interval.
According to the method for estimating the parameters of the radar echo single-component amplitude distribution model, provided by the embodiment of the invention, the influence of a certain amount of abnormal sample data can be effectively inhibited on the premise of ensuring the statistical accuracy by optimizing and selecting the range of the empirical CCDF interval, and meanwhile, the requirement of parameter estimation on the sample data volume can be effectively reduced.
Based on any of the above embodiments, determining an empirical CCDF interval range and its corresponding empirical quantile specifically includes:
determining quantiles of the empirical CCDF interval range based on the empirical CCDF interval range, and counting the number of the quantiles;
if the number of the quantile points in the empirical CCDF interval range is smaller than a preset threshold value, the upper value limit of the empirical CCDF interval range is increased and/or the lower value limit of the empirical CCDF interval range is decreased;
