Description

Target intelligent detection method for interference orthogonal suppression under heterogeneous clutter
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of broadband radar signal processing, and particularly relates to an intelligent target detection method for interference quadrature suppression under heterogeneous clutter.
Background
With the increase of radar bandwidth, the distance resolution is further improved, and the broadband radar is widely applied to the modern military and civil fields of anti-interference, anti-reconnaissance, accurate detection and imaging, high-precision tracking, target recognition and the like, and the self-adaptive detection of the target around the distance extension of the broadband radar has become one of the hot problems in the radar field. Unlike narrowband radar target echo signals, which typically occupy only one range-resolved element, wideband radar target scattering point energy may spread to neighboring range elements, presenting a "one-dimensional range profile," forming a range-extended target. If the point target detection method is still adopted, carrying out target detection on the echo signals aiming at a single distance unit, and carrying out background clutter statistical characteristic estimation by utilizing adjacent distance unit sampling; on one hand, the energy of the strong scattering point of the distance expansion target is easy to leak to the adjacent distance units to cause signal pollution, and a shielding effect is further formed on the target signal of the single distance unit to be detected, so that the point target detection method is poor in effect; on the other hand, in practical application, radar detection faces a complex electromagnetic environment, natural or artificial interference sources such as electronic countermeasure signals or various civil electromagnetic signals may exist, and in addition, the environment where a target is located is complex and changeable, so that background clutter non-uniformity is enhanced, the quantity of pure clutter auxiliary data meeting independent and same distribution is limited, and compared with a narrow-band radar, the problem is particularly prominent in a broadband radar target detection scene, so that an ideal detection effect is difficult to obtain by the existing range expansion target detection method. In fact, although the global uniformity of the complex clutter background is destroyed, the local uniformity of the clutter is still reflected within a certain radial distance range, and at this time, the clutter can be modeled by using a partial uniformity model, namely, the distance unit to be detected and the clutter components in the reference distance unit have the same covariance matrix structure and different power levels, and the model can fully utilize the local uniformity of the clutter, but the available reference distance unit number is limited by the actual clutter non-uniformity degree.
In addition, in the conventional rank-one signal target detection model, the steering vector of the target is usually assumed to be a known fixed vector, but in practical application, there may be a mismatch condition of the steering vector of the target due to beam pointing error and multipath phenomenon. To address this problem, modeling the target signal with a subspace model may be considered. In the subspace model, the signal is represented as the product of a known subspace matrix and an unknown coordinate matrix. If a subspace modeling is adopted for the target and the interference signal based on an integral data set formed by main data and auxiliary data of a plurality of distance units to be detected, and detection statistics are constructed by utilizing a Rao detection criterion, a distance expansion target subspace Rao detector (S-Rao-PHE) for interference orthogonal suppression under non-uniform clutter can be obtained; if the GLRT test criterion is used to construct the detection statistic, a distance-extended target subspace GLRT detector (S-GLRT-PHE) for interference quadrature suppression under non-uniform clutter can be obtained. Under the condition that the auxiliary data amount is sufficient, the two detectors can obtain certain detection robustness, but the auxiliary data amount in the actual application scene is often limited, and the detectors are difficult to effectively function. Considering that it is difficult to obtain enough pure clutter assistance data in a practical environment, a special oblique symmetry structure exists for a clutter covariance matrix of a radar receiver using a central symmetry linear array or a central symmetry interval pulse train. The detection performance of the detector can be improved by utilizing the information of the oblique symmetrical structure, and the requirement for auxiliary data quantity can be reduced.
Under the condition that external interference and uniform auxiliary data quantity are less, aiming at the difficult problem that the detection performance and mismatch robustness are difficult to be considered in the detection of the multi-channel broadband radar distance expansion target, how to fully utilize the information of the oblique symmetry structure, reduce the actual demand on the auxiliary data quantity, improve the estimation precision of an unknown clutter covariance matrix, further construct the intelligent detection method of the distance expansion target with a closed form, effectively inhibit interference signals while keeping the characteristic of Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR), and consider the effective balance between the mismatch robustness and the detection performance, thereby being the key for improving the detection capability of the broadband radar in the complex interference environment and being one of the difficult problems faced by the adaptive detection of the multi-channel broadband radar distance expansion target.

The method constructs the target intelligent detector for interference orthogonal suppression under the heterogeneous clutter. As can be seen from equation (25), the proposed target smart detector for non-uniform clutter interference quadrature suppression has a closed form of detection statistic expression without iterative operation. In addition, compared with detectors such as S-GLRT-PHE and S-Rao-PHE of a distance extension target, the intelligent target detector for interference quadrature suppression under the heterogeneous clutter has better detection performance in a matching environment and stronger detection robustness on a guide vector mismatch signal. In a comprehensive view, the target intelligent detector for interference quadrature suppression under heterogeneous clutter can effectively consider the reasonable balance between detection performance and mismatch robustness while maintaining CFAR characteristics.

To verify the effectiveness of the method of the present invention, this embodiment provides two examples, the first example being directed to a sea detection environment and the second example being directed to a ground detection environment.
Example 1:
referring to fig. 1 of the specification, the embodiment of example 1 is divided into the following steps:
Step A1, carrying out radar irradiation on a sea area to be detected by using a sea detection radar to obtain main data Z of K distance units to be detected; and carrying out radar irradiation on the non-target range around the sea area to be detected to obtain auxiliary data Y of R reference distance units only containing pure sea clutter. The main data Z and the auxiliary data Y are sent to a data conversion module; in the data conversion module, the oblique symmetry conversion main data is obtained according to the formula (9) ; Transform the oblique symmetry into main data/>The auxiliary data Y is sent to a maximum likelihood estimation solving module under the assumption of H 0 and a maximum likelihood estimation solving module under the assumption of H 1; in the maximum likelihood estimation solving module under the assumption of H 0, M, Q and/>, under the assumption of H 0, are obtained according to the formulas (15), (17) and (23), respectivelyMaximum likelihood estimation/>、/>And; In the maximum likelihood estimation solving module under the assumption of H 1, M, D and/>, under the assumption of H 1, are obtained according to the equation (19), the equation (21) and the equation (24), respectivelyMaximum likelihood estimation/>、/>And/>
Notably, in the step A1, the subspace distance extension target signal model constructed by the method can effectively solve the problem that the rank-one signal model is difficult to process target steering vector mismatch, and the robustness of the broadband radar to the offshore target steering vector mismatch condition is improved; meanwhile, the fact that external interference possibly exists in an actual marine environment is considered to have adverse effect on adaptive detection of a distance expansion target, so that the external interference is also considered in the design process of the detector, and subspace signals are adopted to model interference, so that mismatch influence possibly existing in an interference signal is reduced. Aiming at the interference environment with subspace structuring, the intelligent detection method of the distance extension target GLRT target can effectively inhibit interference signals with different intensities, and has good intelligent anti-interference performance; meanwhile, the detector of the method can be suitable for partial uniform and other non-uniform sea clutter environments, and the intelligent adaptability of the detector to the non-uniform sea clutter environments is improved by fully excavating the partial uniformity of the sea clutter and utilizing the maximum likelihood estimation of the clutter power factor under the non-target hypothesis.
A2, sending the results obtained by the maximum likelihood estimation solving module under the assumption of H 0 and the maximum likelihood estimation solving module under the assumption of H 1 to a target intelligent detector constructing module for interference orthogonal suppression under non-uniform clutter, and constructing the detection statistic of the target intelligent detection method for interference orthogonal suppression under non-uniform clutter according to the method (25)And will/>And sending the detection result to a detection judgment module.
It is noted that in step A2, compared with the detectors such as S-GLRT-PHE, S-Rao-PHE, etc. of the distance extension target, the method of the present invention has better detection performance in the matching environment and has stronger detection robustness to the guide vector mismatch signal. In addition, the constructed target intelligent detection method for interference orthogonal suppression under the heterogeneous clutter has an expression in a closed form, compared with the existing distance extension target self-adaptive detection method, the performance balance of detection performance and mismatch robustness is considered while the CFAR characteristic is maintained, and the self-adaptive detection capability of the multi-channel broadband radar on the sea surface weak small target and the mismatch target in the complex electromagnetic environment is improved.
Step A3, setting a detection threshold T according to a preset false alarm probability: specifically, the false alarm probability is set asAccording to the Monte Carlo method, a detection threshold T is calculated according to 100/P fa actually measured sea clutter data accumulated in the earlier stage. Considering that the sea clutter acquisition difficulty is high, if the actually obtained pure sea clutter measured data quantity R is less than 100/P fa, the missing 100/P fa -R clutter data can be obtained by simulating a sea clutter simulation model, and model parameters are reasonably estimated and set according to the obtained pure sea clutter measured data. Further, detection statistics/>Compare with detection threshold T, if/>Judging that the current K distance units to be detected have distance expansion targets, wherein the main data are not used as auxiliary data of other subsequent distance units to be detected; otherwise/>And judging that the current K distance units to be detected do not have a distance expansion target, and taking the main data as auxiliary data of other subsequent distance units to be detected.

Notably, in the step B1, the subspace distance extension target signal model constructed by the method can effectively solve the problem that the rank-one signal model is difficult to process target steering vector mismatch, and the robustness of the broadband radar to the situation of target steering vector mismatch on the ground is improved; meanwhile, the fact that external interference possibly exists in an actual ground environment can be considered to have adverse effects on the self-adaptive detection of the distance expansion target, so that the external interference is also considered in the design process of the detector, and subspace signals are adopted to model the interference, so that mismatch effects possibly existing in the interference signals are reduced. Aiming at the interference environment with subspace structuring, the target intelligent detection method for interference orthogonal suppression under heterogeneous clutter can effectively suppress interference signals with different intensities, and has good intelligent anti-interference performance; meanwhile, the detector of the method can be suitable for partial uniform and other non-uniform ground clutter environments, and the intelligent adaptability of the detector to the non-uniform ground clutter environments is improved by fully excavating the local uniformity of the ground clutter and utilizing the maximum likelihood estimation of the clutter power factor under the non-target hypothesis.

Notably, in the step B2, compared with detectors such as S-GLRT-PHE and S-Rao-PHE of a distance extension target, the method has better detection performance in a matching environment and stronger detection robustness on a guide vector mismatch signal. In addition, the constructed target intelligent detection method for interference orthogonal suppression under heterogeneous clutter has an expression in a closed form, compared with the existing distance extension target self-adaptive detection method, the performance balance of detection performance and mismatch robustness is considered while the CFAR characteristic is maintained, and the self-adaptive detection capability of the multichannel broadband radar on the ground weak target and the mismatch target in a complex electromagnetic environment is improved.
Step B3, setting a detection threshold T according to a preset false alarm probability: specifically, the false alarm probability is set to be P fa, and the detection threshold T is calculated according to 100/P fa actually measured ground clutter data accumulated in the earlier stage according to the Monte Carlo method. Further, the statistics are detectedCompare with detection threshold T, if/>Judging that the current K distance units to be detected have distance expansion targets, wherein the main data are not used as auxiliary data of other subsequent distance units to be detected; otherwise/>And judging that the current K distance units to be detected do not have a distance expansion target, and taking the main data as auxiliary data of other subsequent distance units to be detected.
