Abstract

The invention provides a real-time suppression method for through-wall radar coupling signals. The technical scheme is that the method comprises the steps of conducting 8-time interpolation to echo signals; then by simply normalizing the interpolated echo signals based on a largest value of the interpolated echo signals, obtaining post-amplitude-compensation echo signals; further, calculating the mean value of all the post-amplitude-compensation echo signals before the current time, using echo signals as reference signals, conducting mutual correlation operation to the post-amplitude-compensation echo signals before the current time and post-amplitude-compensation echo signals at the current time, searching out the position of a largest value in the result of the mutual correlation operation and using the largest value as a time delay value, and conducting time delay compensation to the post-amplitude-compensation echo signals at the current time; finally, processing the post-time-delay-compensation echo signals at the current time by the adoption of the index number moving average background cancellation method to complete suppression to the coupling signals at the current time. The real-time suppression method reduces false-alarm caused by residue of the coupling signals when a through-wall radar probes objects within a close range.

Description

A kind of real-time inhibition method of through-wall radar coupled signal
Technical field
The invention belongs to through-wall radar field of detecting, relate to a kind of real-time inhibition method of the coupled signal that can be used for through-wall radar detection.
Background technology
In through-wall radar, echoed signal comprises echo signal, noise signal, noise signal and coupled signal.Wherein, coupled signal is present between dual-mode antenna, and its signal amplitude is very strong and the duration is longer, tends to override the echoed signal of close-in target.Therefore, through-wall radar, in the time surveying close-in target, must suppress the interference of coupled signal.Conventionally, coupled signal is considered to stable suppressing.But in actual through-wall radar, thrashing is that inevitably its duration, this made the amplitude of coupled signal and time delay can not keep stable often in 10 ~ 150 picosecond range.If not taking into account system shake and coupled signal is suppressed, residual after inhibition is enough to cause false-alarm.Therefore, how to suppress comparatively up hill and dale coupled signal and disturb, improve SCR(Signal-to-Clutter Ratio, signal to noise ratio), the key while becoming through-wall radar detection close-in target.
In through-wall radar, common coupled signal inhibition method has three kinds: range gate method, MTI (indication of Moving Target Indication moving target) method and the background method that disappears mutually.
One, range gate method.
Range gate method often appears at the fact on closer distance unit based on coupled signal, chooses the suitable range gate that comprises coupled signal, and the echoed signal in range gate is directly removed or zero setting, realizes the inhibition to coupled signal.As document: Attiya, A.M., A.Bayram, A.Safaai-Jazi, and S.M.Riad, UWB applications for through-wall detection.IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium, 2004.
In the time surveying close-in target, this method is worthless.In through-wall radar, the hangover duration of radar emission signal is longer, and the scope that coupled signal covers is larger, often can reach 3 meters.Range gate method, in removing coupled signal, is also removed the echoed signal of close-in target in the lump, causes through-wall radar to produce detection blind area, has limited the detection range of through-wall radar.
Two, MTI method.
Time delay and the amplitude of MTI method supposition coupled signal keep stable, coupled signal is used as to a kind of noise signal and suppresses to process.As document: Lazaro, A., D.Girbau, and R.Villarino, Analysis of vital signs monitoring using an IR-UWB radar.Progress In Electromagnetics Research-Pier, Vol.100,265-284,2010.Above-mentioned document utilization two pulse cancellers suppress coupled signal.Two pulse cancellers are simple in structure, only current time pulse echo signal need be deducted to the pulse echo signal in previous moment, do not need multiplying, and operational efficiency is high.By level di-pulse canceller, can expand to N pulse canceller.As document: Richards, M.A., Fundamentals of radar signal processing, McGraw-Hill, New York, 2005.
MTI method is owing to not considering the instability of coupled signal, for faint target echo signal, and residual still very high after coupled signal suppresses; Simultaneously, due to together with static target echo is aliasing in noise signal, MTI method can be the two filtering in the lump.
Three, the background method that disappears mutually.
The background method that disappears is mutually chosen the historical echoed signal estimated background of some, then subtracts each other with current time echoed signal, completes the inhibition of coupled signal.As document: Zetik, R., S.Crabbeb, J.Krajnakc, P.Peyerld, J.Sachsa, and R.
Figure BDA00002807360500021
detection and localization of persons behind obstacles using M-sequence through-the-wall radar, Proceedings of SPIE on Conference on Sensors, and Command, Control, Communications, and Intelligence (C31) Technologies for Homeland Security and Homeland Defense V, 2006.According to the difference of background estimating method, background phase elimination can be divided into: overall average background disappears mutually, running mean background phase slake index running mean background disappears mutually.The overall situation average background method that disappears is mutually in addition average by whole historical echoed signals, estimated background; Running mean background disappears average that method chooses echoed signal in sliding window as a setting mutually; Index running mean background the has disappeared method compatibility mutually chief of first two method, give the weights that converge to gradually zero for historical echoed signal, estimated background, as document: Chen Jie, ultra-wideband radar signal is processed and formation method research, doctorate paper, Postgraduate School, Chinese Academy of Sciences (electronics research institute), 2007.
Although background disappears mutually, method has good adaptability for the target of different motion state, suppressing when coupled signal, not consider equally the instability of coupled signal, and residual still very strong after coupled signal suppresses.

In the time of N >=2, first the echoed signal of n-hour is entered to 8 times of interpolation of time domain; Secondly, based on after interpolation n-hour echoed signal maximal value, the echoed signal after normalization n-hour interpolation, obtains the echoed signal after the Amplitude Compensation of n-hour, above-mentioned normalized is that the echoed signal after interpolation is carried out to Amplitude Compensation; Then, calculate the average of the echoed signal after all Amplitude Compensations between moment 1 to moment N-1, as with reference to signal, make computing cross-correlation with the echoed signal after n-hour Amplitude Compensation, search out in computing cross-correlation result peaked position as time delay value, the echoed signal after n-hour Amplitude Compensation is carried out to delay compensation; Finally, to the echoed signal after n-hour delay compensation, adopt the index running mean background method that disappears mutually, complete the inhibition to n-hour coupled signal.
Beneficial effect: the present invention compensates by the amplitude to coupled signal and phase place, eliminate the impact of thrashing on coupled signal stability, association index running mean background disappears mutually, and then successfully solved the conventional background method that disappears mutually and suppressed residual larger problem when coupled signal, when having reduced through-wall radar and having surveyed close-in target coupled signal suppress after the residual false-alarm causing.
