This paper presents a radar working mode based on multi-pulse combination and coding, and the basic concept and theoretical model of pulse-coded radar are established. Using multi-pulse combination and the modulation of the time, frequency, and phase parameters, the pulse signal is coded in time domain, frequency domain, or time-frequency domain. Based on multi-pulse combination and coding, a new working method and theoretical basis are provided to solve the problem of coupling constraints among parameters of traditional pulse and continuous wave radars, which limits the performance of the radar system. Based on the fabricated Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and its tests, the pulse coding, target signal recovery method, and pulse coding performance were studied. The study and test results show that the sampling rate of radar signals could be reduced to break through the limitation of Nyquist sampling theorem and simplify the difficulty of system implementation using frequency division pulse coding method. A 5 GHz bandwidth signal was sampled with 4.8 GHz and was recovered without distortion in the radar system, and an SAR imaging resolution of 0.03×0.03 m was realized. By using the time domain pulse coding method with an increase of duty cycle, the signal-to-noise ratio was improved by over 20 dB. By using the two-dimensional pulse coding method, the SAR signal ambiguity was removed, and the imaging swath of over 90 km was realized. The theoretical and test results verify the significant advantages of the pulse coding method in improving radar performance, by which a new technical approach for the realization of high performance radar system is provided.

Resolution performance is an important performance criteria of the radar systems. Typically, the Ambiguity Function (AF) of signals is used to define the range and Doppler limits. In this study Some new opinions are proposed—First, the AF is based on the signals processed with matched filter, which can guarantee the maximization of the output of the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). Thus, the AF is optimal for target detection. However, the AF is unsuitable for the resolution of multiple targets. Second, the AF cannot reflect the effect of random factors, such as noise, target fluctuation, and mutual interference of close targets. Third, the AF can only handle two equal-powered targets and provide the conclusion of the limits. However, the AF fails to distinguish multiple unequal-powered targets, which is often the case in reality. Therefore, the hypothesis testing theory is applied to resolve the range resolution of two closely spaced targets for radars, and our study is based on the original echoes of the signals. With the definition of the correct resolution and false alarm rates in the statistical standpoint, we derive the expression of the range Statistical Resolution Limit (SRL). The simulation results indicate that the SRL can exceed the Rayleigh limit. With the false alarm and correct resolution rates being 0.001 and 0.5, respectively, for the two phase-orthogonal linear-frequency-modulated signals, the range SRL can be as low as 0.3 times of the Rayleigh limit.

Existing track-to-track association methods are mainly based on statistics and fuzzy mathematics. However, most methods based on statistics depend on thresholds, and parameters based on fuzzy mathematics are complex to set. In addition, most methods only consider the information of a single track point in comparison. To solve the existing problems, this paper presents a distance distribution histogram feature to extract the similarity features of a trajectory and measure them using the standardized Euclidean distances; this method effectively utilizes the characteristics of the whole trajectory and has a good anti-noise performance and accuracy. The motion features of ships and the location accuracy of different data sources were fully considered. After obtaining the histogram features of velocity difference and the source features of sensors, the authors combined them and trained association models using machine learning, which effectively avoids the problem of manually setting thresholds and complex parameter settings. Finally, a real ship data set was constructed. The experimental results show that compared with the traditional distance feature, the overall association accuracy was improved by 3.23%～11.65% using the distance distribution histogram feature, and by 0.068% using the combination feature, which verifies the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The rapid advances in positioning technology have created huge spatio-temporal trajectory data, and there are always obvious aberrant outliers in trajectory data. Detecting outliers in the trajectory is critical to improving data quality and the accuracy of subsequent trajectory data mining tasks. In this paper, we propose a trajectory outlier detection algorithm based on a Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM) model. First, a six-dimensional motion feature vector is extracted for each trajectory point, and then we construct a Bi-LSTM model. The model input is the trajectory data feature vector of a certain sequence length, and its output is the class type of the current track point. In addition, a combination method of undersampling and oversampling is applied to mitigate the effect of data distribution imbalance on detection performance. The Bi-LSTM model can automatically learn the difference between the normal points and adjacent abnormal points in the motion characteristics by combining the LSTM unit and the bidirectional network. Experimental results based on a real ship trajectory annotation data show that the detection performance of our proposed algorithm significantly exceeds those of the constant velocity threshold algorithm, non-sequential classical machine learning classification algorithms, and convolutional neural network model. Especially, the recall value of the proposed algorithm reaches 0.902, which verifies its effectiveness.

With the continuous advancement of modern technology, more types of radar and related technologies are continuously being developed, and the identification of radar emitter signals has gradually become a very important research field. This paper focuses on the identification of modulation types in radar emitter signal identification. We propose a weighted normalized Singular-Value Decomposition (SVD) feature extraction algorithm, which is based on the perspective of data energy and SVD. The filtering effect of complex SVD is analyzed, as well as the influence of the number of rows of data matrix on the decomposition results, and the recognition effect of different classification models. The experimental results show that the algorithm has better filtering and recognition effects on common radar signals. Under –20 dB, the cosine similarity values of the reconstructed and original signals remain at about 0.94, and the recognition accuracy remains above 97% under a confidence level \begin{document}$\alpha $\end{document} ![]()

Communication signals are vital to the implementation of integrated radar and communication, which is an effective way to reduce platform volume and electromagnetic interference. In this paper, an integrated radar and communication signal based on multicarrier parameter modulation chirp signal is proposed. Its main carrier adopts the unique chirp signal to implement radar function, while communication information is modulated by the subcarrier with different chirp rates and initial frequency chirp signal. The signal property is analyzed by ambiguity function, and the processing and system performance are studied. Finally, simulation results demonstrate that the proposed sharing signal has a low symbol error rate and high robustness, and communication data transmission can be implemented by slightly degrading the radars performance.

Range Cell Migration Correction (RCMC) represents an important advance in moving target imaging in the airborne single antenna high-resolution SAR system. In this paper, we propose a new four-step RCMC approach combined with parameter estimation that overcomes the drawbacks of high computation and low accuracy in high-resolution. First, we use the Hough transform and the energy balancing method to estimate the range velocity and correct the range walk. Next, we perform a range curvature correction in the range-Doppler domain by using the initial Doppler rate. Thirdly, we accurately estimate the Doppler rate using Map-drift technology. Finally, we correct the residual range curvature by the accurate Doppler rate. Compared with traditional algorithms, the proposed method requires less computation and is robust in the high-resolution SAR system. In this paper, we present a mathematical model and validate its effectiveness using both simulation and real data.

Forward-looking multi-channel SAR imaging suffers from ambiguity regarding left and right echoes. To deblur the imaging process, spatial resources must be used, which make the imaging process more complex than the general side-looking SAR. In complex electromagnetic environments, it is very difficult to obtain forward-looking SAR images without interference or ambiguity. In this paper, we present an adaptive discriminant suppression algorithm that addresses deception jamming based on Azimuth ADaptive Beam Forming (AADBF). First, we use the AADBF technique to cancel the multi-channel received echo signal and retain the deception jamming samples. Then, we use the threshold detection method to identify the pixel location of the deception jamming on high-resolution SAR images. Finally, we apply adaptive spatial filtering to pixels with interference to achieve anti-deception jamming. Simulation results show that this method can effectively identify and suppress deception jamming, while realizing forward-looking SAR non-interference focusing imaging.

A novel approach using two-dimensional mixed baseline based on Multi-Input Multi-Output Synthetic Aperture Radar (MIMO-SAR) has been proposed for range delay and azimuth Doppler frequency modulation used in deceptive jamming. Based on MIMO-SAR phase coding method, which makes the multi-channel signal orthogonal, we propose the detection of deceptive jamming phenomenon by employing multi-dimensional phase information, and suppress the jamming targets via phase compensation to improve the ability of countering deceptive jamming. Moreover, we utilize radar anti-jamming improvement factor as a quantitative evaluating index. In the limited platform space, the radar anti-jamming improvement factor of the proposed method is three times greater than that of conventional single-input multi-output systems. Experimental results demonstrate the validity of our method.

Through partial intercepting and multiple forwarding of a radar transmitting signal, Digital Radio Frequency Memory (DRFM)-based Interrupted Sampling Repeater Jamming (ISRJ) possesses advantages of small size, light weight, and flexibility. Thus, DRFM-ISRJ can be equipped on targets to perform multi-point source main-lobe jamming, posing a serious threat to modern radars. In this study, a time-frequency domain recognition and suppression method was analyzed. First, the expression of pulse compression and Time-Frequency Distribution (TFD) of the jamming signal were deduced. Then, the differences of TFD between target echo and jamming signal were analyzed. On this basis, a jamming recognition program and a time-frequency domain filter to suppress the jamming were proposed. Simulation results show that the recognition rate is better than 90% when the jamming-to-noise ratio is over –3 dB for the received signal. Based on correct recognition, a signal to jamming-and-noise ratio improvement of 18 dB can be achieved using the time-frequency filter.

Fast construction of the 3-D scattering centers of ship targets on the sea surface is important for many radar applications, including the fast signature prediction, feature extraction, and automatic recognition of targets. Combining the " four-path” model for target-surface coupling scattering with modified Fresnel reflection coefficient model in the stochastic sea surface and ray tube integration method, we propose a 3-D image formation method for ship-surface compound targets. Using the CLEAN technique on 3-D image, we develop a fast algorithm for establishing 3-D scattering center model for ship targets on the sea surface. Because this algorithm realizes 3D imaging of targets at a single frequency and single aspect angle, and adopts simplified surface model to avoid the need to construct a large number of surface elements, the computational efficiency of the proposed alogrithm is greatly increased to meet the needs of practical engineering applications. Simulation experiments of a typical ship target show that the proposed algorithm can increase the speed by four orders of magnitude under typical conditions, as compared with the traditional FFT-based 3D imaging method. We validate the accuracy of this algorithm by comparing reconstructed 1-D range profiles and ISAR images obtain by the scattering center model with the ones that are directly simulated.

A robust quaternion-valued wideband adaptive beamformer is proposed, in which a quaternion is utilized to arrange the output of the array element. By exploiting the augmented envelope alignment technique, adopting the three involutions of quaternion, and incorporating the noncircular information of the signal simultaneously, a quaternion-valued wideband augmented signal model is established to achieve the robust adaptive beamforming based on signal subspace projection. Compared with other wideband beamformers, the proposed scheme exhibits a better performance in extracting noncircular signals by array aperture extension, and is insensitive to the pointing error. The simulation results verify the efficiency of the proposed beamformer.

Ground-Based Differential Interferometric Radars (GB-DInRads) have been widely applied to measure deformations. In this paper, the main types of GB-DInRads are summarized, including ground-based real aperture radar and Ground-Based Synthetic Aperture Radar (GB-SAR). The working principles and important parameters of some representative systems are introduced. Then, taking the GB-SAR as an example, the current key processing techniques are introduced, which mainly include differential interferometry, permanent scatterer selection, and atmospheric phase compensation. Lastly, three examples are presented to show the applications of GB-DInRad in deformation measurements. A Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar was utilized to monitor an open-pit mine for about 11 days, and two regions with obvious deformation were found. In addition, a linear-scanning GB-SAR was utilized to monitor a mountain slope after severe landslide. The analysis result proved that rainfall could accelerate deformation. The feasibility of vibration measurement with the MIMO radar was also discussed in this paper.

This paper discusses anti-deceptive jamming methods based on single-channel and fixed waveform assumptions for synthetic aperture radar imaging. Using the essential defects of the deceptive-jamming theory, the information acquisition ability of the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) system in a complicated electromagnetic environment is effectively improved with limited degrees of freedom in spatial and time domains. Geometric and signal models of SAR imaging and deceptive jamming are established and the different characteristics between them are analyzed according to their working mechanisms. Upon extracting their characteristic differences via different imaging processes and enhancing them based on statistical information, the degree of separation between the true and false targets is increased. Therefore, identification on the deceptive jamming is realized. Moreover, an approach for the dynamic synthetic aperture is used to formulate an optimization problem for the reconstruction of true and false targets. By solving such a problem, the true and false targets are separately reconstructed with super-resolution, achieving the goal of deceptive-jamming suppression. The effectiveness of the proposed methods is verified by simulations.
