Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of airborne radar signal processing, and particularly provides a method for selecting an airborne radar training sample based on signal-to-noise ratio loss, which is used for eliminating the training sample inconsistent with the target distance ring clutter characteristic and ensuring the uniformity of the training sample used for clutter covariance matrix estimation in airborne radar space-time adaptive processing. Compared with the traditional method, the method has the advantages that the clutter characteristics of the target distance ring and the training sample are directly represented by the aid of the sub-aperture covariance matrix, and the representation of the clutter characteristics is not influenced by other samples. In order to eliminate the influence of a target signal, the target distance ring possibly containing target signal components is eliminated in a Capon spectrum integral reconstruction-based mode, and compared with an orthogonal projection mode, clutter characteristics can be better reserved. The method adopts the output signal-to-noise ratio loss as the test statistic, and directly represents the approximation degree of the current sample and the CUT clutter characteristic.

Description

Airborne radar training sample selection method based on signal-to-noise-ratio loss
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of airborne radar signal processing, and particularly relates to an airborne radar training sample selection method which is used for eliminating training samples which are inconsistent with the characteristics of target distance ring clutter and ensuring the uniformity of training samples used for clutter covariance matrix estimation in airborne radar space-time adaptive processing.
Background
The space-time adaptive processing technology is an effective means for detecting a slow and small ground target under a strong clutter background by an airborne radar, and the key of the space-time adaptive processing lies in the estimation of a clutter covariance matrix of a target distance ring. However, in an actual application scenario, due to the influence of various non-ideal factors, such as a discrete strong scattering point, an interference target signal, intra-clutter motion, terrain variation, weather influence, and the like, the clutter characteristic of the training sample may be inconsistent with the target distance ring, and the estimation accuracy of the clutter covariance matrix of the target distance ring by using the training sample is reduced, so that the space-time adaptive processing performance is reduced, and the detection performance of the airborne radar on the ground target is deteriorated. Therefore, the original training samples are screened, the training samples which are inconsistent with the target distance ring clutter characteristic are removed, and the method has important significance for improving the detection performance of the airborne radar to the ground moving target.
At present, the existing airborne radar training sample selection method is mainly based on a generalized inner product, waveform similarity, terrain data and a sub-aperture covariance matrix. For example, in the document "Tang B, tang J, pen y.detection of coherent samples based on loaded generated inner product method [ J ]. Digital Signal Processing,2012,22 (4): 605-613", an airborne radar training sample selection method based on generalized inner product is disclosed, wherein the original training sample is used to calculate sample covariance matrix to characterize clutter characteristics of a target distance ring, and then the generalized inner product of each training sample is calculated as test statistic to perform sample screening; the technique uses a sample covariance matrix calculated from the original training samples, but does not take into account clutter characteristics of the target range rings, when the clutter characteristics of most samples are not consistent with the target range rings, the selected samples will not have uniformity with the target range rings.
For example, in the document "Yifeng W, tong W, jianxin W, et al, robust tracking sampling selection al, high basis on spectral similarity for space-time adaptive processing in noise in terms of noise similarity [ J ]. Radio Source & Navigation Iet,2015,9 (7): 778-782", an airborne Radar training sample selection method based on waveform similarity is disclosed, and a sample screening process is completed by comparing the waveform similarity of a sample signal and a target distance ring signal in a time domain or a frequency domain and removing training samples with larger differences; the fundamental purpose of the Training sample Selection is to select the Training sample with the same covariance matrix as the target range ring, and theoretical analysis in the document "Li H, bao W, hu J, et al.a Training Samples Selection Method Based on System Identification for STAP [ J ]. Signal Processing,2017,142 (jan.): 119-124" proves that even the Training Samples with completely different waveforms can have the same covariance matrix, so the Method can seriously reduce the utilization rate of the Training Samples, resulting in the loss of effective Training Samples.
For example, in documents "Capraro C, capraro G, bradic I, et al, imaging digital terrain data I n knowledge-aided space-time adaptive processing [ J ]. IEEE Transactions on Aerospace & electronic Systems,2006,42 (3): 1080-1099", an airborne radar training sample selection method based on terrain data is disclosed, which assumes that when a training sample and a target distance ring have similar terrain, an echo signal of the training sample and the target distance ring have a consistent covariance matrix, so that the terrain data is used to screen the training sample having similar terrain to the target distance, and the whole sample screening process is completed; the method requires accurate matching of terrain data and radar echo signals, which is difficult to meet in practical application scenarios, and radar echo signals are affected by the irradiation angle under the same terrain, which is not considered at all in a method based on terrain data, so that the accuracy of screened samples can be seriously reduced.
For example, in the document "Wu Y, wang T, wu J, et al. Conveying Sample Selection for Space-Time A significant Processing in Heterogeneous environment [ J ]. IEEE Geoscience and Remote sensing letters,2014,12 (4): 691-695", a method for selecting a training Sample for an airborne radar based on a subaperture covariance matrix is disclosed, which is realized by comparing the difference between a target distance ring and the subaperture covariance matrix of the training Sample to eliminate the non-uniform training Sample, and the specific method is to calculate the nearest norm through the subtraction of two matrices; according to the method, in order to remove target components possibly existing in a target distance ring, orthogonal projection is carried out on target distance ring signals in an orthogonal subspace of a target guide vector, so that the target components are removed, the target guide vector cannot be orthogonal to a clutter subspace, clutter signal characteristics in the target distance ring are seriously damaged by adopting the orthogonal projection mode, so that the clutter characteristics of a screened training sample and the actual clutter characteristics of the target distance ring have larger deviation, and when the difference between the target distance ring and a training sample sub-aperture covariance matrix is measured by adopting a Frobenius norm, the Frobenius norm cannot accurately represent the approximation degree of the two covariance matrices, so that the screening efficiency is low.
