Description

Low peak sidelobe frequency coding radar waveform design method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of wideband radar signal waveform design and processing, and particularly relates to a low-peak sidelobe frequency coding radar waveform design method.
Background
The broadband radar has the characteristic of instantaneous large bandwidth, and the instantaneous large bandwidth radar waveform is divided into a plurality of small bandwidths and is coded to obtain the intra-pulse frequency coding waveform. Compared to non-frequency coded wideband radar waveforms, intra-pulse frequency coded radar systems have significant advantages in: (1) strong anti-interference capability: the signal frequency of the intra-pulse frequency coding radar jumps randomly in one pulse, so that the difficulty of interference caused by the fact that an interference machine transmits the same-frequency signal is greatly improved; (2) improving the detection imaging performance of the radar; (3) distance resolution and doppler resolution are improved: the frequency encoded radar signal has a functional characteristic of a narrow main lobe through pulse compression, which means that the frequency encoded radar has the ability to provide high resolution for both range and speed.
In the current intra-pulse frequency coding radar processing technology, the main problems are that a target has higher side lobes after pulse compression, the higher side lobes are easy to be processed as main lobes, so that false targets are easy to be misjudged, and small targets are easy to be missed due to the high side lobes, so that the anti-interference performance of the radar is seriously affected.

2. Simulation content and result analysis:
the simulation result of the whole process can be obtained by using the low-peak sidelobe frequency coding radar waveform design method. The simulation of the intra-pulse frequency coded radar echo adopted in the test is shown in fig. 3.
Referring to fig. 4-5, fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of pulse pressure results before frequency coding optimization in a simulation experiment, and fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of pulse pressure results after frequency coding optimization in a simulation experiment. As is evident from comparing fig. 4 and 5, the optimized maximum sidelobe value is reduced a lot.
The simulation test also performs a dB conversion on the pulse compression results before and after the optimization, please refer to fig. 6-7, fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of the pulse compression sidelobe ratio before the optimization in the simulation test, and fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of the pulse compression sidelobe ratio after the optimization in the simulation test. And after multiple experiments and averaging, the conclusion that the optimized peak side lobe ratio is reduced by about 5dB can be obtained, and the peak side lobe ratio is from about-12 dB to about-17 dB.
Fig. 8 is a schematic diagram of simulation iteration based on the PSO algorithm in a simulation experiment, it can be seen that after about 100 iterations, a final convergence value can be achieved, and the start and end positions of the simulation graph also correspond to peak sidelobe ratios in fig. 7 of fig. 6, respectively, so that the correctness of the simulation can be demonstrated.
The result of each iteration can optimize the waveform through multiple simulation tests, the convergence speed is high (convergence is finished in 100 iterations in most cases), waveform optimization can be realized with high efficiency, and the algorithm successfully realizes optimization of the signal waveform within an acceptable optimization range, so that the final purpose of reducing side lobes is achieved.
In addition, in order to verify whether the detection capability of the invention on the small target is improved, two targets are respectively set to be a strong target which is out of a distance of 1000m and a weak target which is out of a distance of 1100m, and under the condition that the speeds are equal, two coherent accumulation simulations are carried out, and the results are shown in fig. 9 and 10, wherein fig. 9 is a coherent accumulation top view before optimization, and fig. 10 is a coherent accumulation top view after optimization. From the simulation result graph, it is easy to draw the conclusion: the weak target before optimization is easily influenced by the side lobe of the strong target, so that missed judgment is caused, and the position of the weak target can be clearly determined through the coherent accumulation simulation after optimization of the invention. The invention thus also has the advantage of improving the detection capability of small objects.
