Description

Temporary high-speed target detection method based on long-time accumulation
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of radar signal processing, in particular to a method for detecting a temporary altitude high-speed target based on long-time accumulation, which can be used for improving accumulation gain, reducing calculation amount and facilitating engineering realization.
Background
With the development of aerospace technology, hypersonic aircrafts are concerned by military countries with extremely attractive military application prospects. The novel technology integrates the novel technologies of a plurality of disciplines in the aerospace field, represents the research and development direction of the aerospace field in the future, and is regarded as another important technical field behind stealth technology in the military. The hypersonic aircraft generally flies in 20 km-100 km near space, has the characteristics of long combat distance, high flying speed, strong maneuverability and the like, can penetrate through radar beams in extremely short time, breaks through the existing air defense system, and brings great threat to the air safety of the country. The method has important significance in the research of high-speed and high-maneuvering target detection technology in the face of various defense penetration means of the hypersonic aircraft in the near space.
Generally, observation time can be increased, a long-time accumulation technology is adopted to improve the output signal-to-noise ratio of the target, and time is used for exchanging energy, so that the detection performance of the radar on the target is improved. However, in the long-time accumulation process, due to the high-speed and high-mobility motion characteristics of a high-speed target in an adjacent space, the phenomena of range migration and Doppler spread occur, so that the traditional coherent accumulation effect is seriously deteriorated. The plasma sheath is generated by air ionization caused by considering the high-speed movement of the target in the atmospheric layer and air friction, and the coherence of the echo signal is deteriorated. If the long-time coherent accumulation is still carried out, the result is deteriorated; meanwhile, from the perspective of hardware realization, long-time coherent accumulation has high requirements on equipment quantity and high cost. Therefore, the method has urgent practical significance for researching the effective and easily-implemented long-time accumulation algorithm and detecting the high-speed target in the adjacent space.

The technical principle of the invention is as follows: firstly, segmenting echo signals after pulse compression according to pulse number, and compensating distance walk and Doppler expansion of the envelope of the echo signals in each segment; then carrying out coherent accumulation in each section on the compensated result in each section; finally, envelope movement and non-coherent accumulation between segments are carried out on all echo signals, so that the energy of the echo signals can be effectively accumulated.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention is realized by adopting the following technical scheme.
A temporary altitude high-speed target detection method based on long-time accumulation comprises the following steps:
step 1, establishing a high-speed maneuvering target motion model, constructing a radar echo data model under a long-time observation condition, and sequentially performing down-conversion and low-pass filtering on original echo data to obtain baseband echo data s received by a radarr(tk,tm) (ii) a Then, the baseband echo data s is filtered by a matched filterr(tk,tm) Performing pulse compression to obtain echo data S of frequency-slow time domain after pulse compressionP(f,tm);
Wherein m is 0,1,., N-1, N represents the total number of accumulated pulses; t is tkFor a fast time, tmIs a slow time;
step 2, according to the slow time dimension, the echo data S of the frequency-slow time domain after pulse pressure is processedP(f,tm) Division into M echo data segments

Multiplying to obtain compensated first section echo data, and estimating the target motion speed; forming an optimal compensation matrix according to the target motion speed estimation value, respectively compensating all echo data segments to obtain M echo data segments after phase compensation, converting the M echo data segments after phase compensation into a distance time domain through IFFT to obtain a time domain signal after phase compensation
Figure BDA0003081635370000031
Step 4, estimating Doppler frequency modulation of the time domain signals by using a line-off frequency modulation method, namely estimating target acceleration, constructing a Doppler compensation item according to the target acceleration estimation value, and compensating all phase-compensated time domain signals to realize Doppler spread compensation;
step 5, performing fast Fourier transform of Q points on each distance unit of the M echo data segments compensated in the step 4, respectively gathering energy in each echo data segment in a distance unit and a Doppler unit, realizing coherent accumulation in the data segments, and obtaining the M echo data segments after coherent accumulation;

Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
(1) for very mobile targets such as airplanes, long-term coherent accumulation techniques are limited. The long-time coherent accumulation technology assumes that the motion of the target is stable, and the radial speed of the target remains unchanged, but during long-time detection, the track and the speed of the motion of the target are usually changed, and coherent accumulation cannot be realized. The invention adopts the long-time accumulation method of time segmentation, intra-segment coherent accumulation and inter-segment non-coherent accumulation, thereby not only solving the problem of the calculation amount of the long-time coherent accumulation, but also solving the problem of the phase difference variation of echo signals; meanwhile, when the intra-segment distance walk correction and Doppler spread compensation are carried out, the traversal search quantity of the target speed and the target acceleration can be reduced, so that the calculation quantity of the algorithm is reduced, and the engineering implementation is easy.
(2) When the MTD detection is performed for all echoes over a long period of time, even if the target does not move around, the energy is dispersed among a plurality of velocity elements due to the change in velocity, because the velocity (doppler) elements are too finely divided. The invention adopts the methods of time segmentation, intra-segment coherent accumulation and inter-segment non-coherent accumulation, and can prevent the speed division of the target. After the signals are segmented, the coherent accumulated pulse number in each segment is small, the speed unit is coarse, and when the speed change of the target is not large, the target still falls into one speed unit; the module values of the coherent accumulation results of data of various batches in a plurality of time periods are overlapped, non-coherent accumulation is realized, and velocity splitting can not occur.

Simulation experiment
The effect of the present invention is further explained by simulation experiments.

3. Analysis of simulation results
As can be seen from fig. 2(a) and 2(b), although the number of accumulated pulses per group is only 32, distance walk occurs in the echo signal due to the relatively high moving speed of the target; after speed compensation, echo signals of different pulses are corrected to the same distance unit, and distance walk between the pulses is corrected.
As can be seen from fig. 3(a) and 3(b), since the target has acceleration, when the echo is directly subjected to coherent accumulation, the doppler spread of the distance unit where the target is located is severe, the energy of the echo signal cannot be effectively accumulated, and energy loss exists, which is not favorable for subsequent target detection, so that certain means are required to compensate the echo signal, and the signal-to-noise ratio during target detection is ensured; after acceleration compensation, coherent accumulation is carried out, the energy of the echo signal is effectively accumulated in a Doppler unit, and then the inter-segment processing can be carried out continuously.
As can be seen from fig. 4(a) and 4(b), after a series of processing on signals in the segments, the energy of the target can be effectively accumulated, but the distance difference between the segments still remains to be solved; after the frequency domain envelope displacement, the peak position of each segment is in the same distance unit, and the distance difference between the segments is effectively compensated.
As can be seen from FIG. 5, after the inter-segment non-coherent accumulation, the target energy is effectively accumulated, which is beneficial to the subsequent target detection and verifies the effectiveness of the method.
As can be seen from fig. 6, as the number of accumulated pulses increases, the number of times of searching in the conventional long-time coherent accumulation method increases rapidly, which means that the calculation amount of the algorithm increases sharply, while the method provided by the present invention has a slow growth trend, and the variation of the calculation amount is small in comparison, which is more beneficial to engineering implementation and real-time processing.
Although the present invention has been described in detail in this specification with reference to specific embodiments and illustrative embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that modifications and improvements can be made thereto based on the present invention. Accordingly, such modifications and improvements are intended to be within the scope of the invention as claimed.
