Description

Three-dimensional enhanced imaging method for human body target
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of radar monitoring, relates to radar human body three-dimensional imaging, and particularly relates to a three-dimensional enhanced imaging method of a human body target.
Background
For a long time, military targets such as airplanes and tanks are used as observation objects for radars, and living bodies are used as observation objects for biological radars, so that a new chapter of the radars in the application fields of medicine, anti-terrorism, search and rescue and the like is opened. The electromagnetic waves emitted by the biological radar can detect the body surface micromotion caused by vital signs such as respiration and heartbeat of a human target, and detect and identify the vital body target according to the body surface micromotion. The biological radar has the advantages of all-weather, non-contact, positioning and the like, and has irreplaceable advantages in the fields of emergency rescue, anti-terrorism maintenance and the like.
The single-channel biological radar can only solve the problem of detection of a single static human target facing the sight direction of the radar or rough identification of a plurality of moving human targets, and when the targets deviate from the sight direction or a plurality of static human targets exist in a scene, the detection and positioning performance of the single-channel biological radar is reduced. When the Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar technology is applied to the field of life detection, the problem of detection performance reduction caused by single-channel detection can be solved by using multi-view information of the MIMO radar technology, and the detection performance of the biological radar is led to take a new step.
Two-dimensional imaging projects a target in a real three-dimensional space to a two-dimensional imaging plane area, partial detail characteristics of the target area are lost in the projection process, shadow effect and space blurring occur, for some complex scenes, aliasing of target information is caused, structures of all parts of the target information cannot be distinguished, and a clear image cannot be seen. If the three-dimensional image of the target scene can be acquired, adverse effects caused by the projection process can be eliminated, and certain benefits are brought to accurate positioning of the target and subsequent processing such as target identification and target state analysis.

The target reflection echo received by the radar already contains three-dimensional information of a target scene area, however, when the radar receives insufficient target scene echo information, three-dimensional reconstruction of the target scene is difficult to realize. At least three dimensions are needed to obtain scene information of the target to realize inversion. Therefore, in addition to the time-distance dimension of the transmitted signal, three-dimensional imaging also requires a two-dimensional spatial spread of radar receiving positions to obtain three-dimensional information of the target scene.
The radar system comprises a signal source, a transmitter, a switch array, an antenna array, a receiving channel, a real-time signal acquisition and processing module, a display control module, a battery and the like. The signal source generates FMCW signals, and the FMCW signals are amplified by the power of the transmitter to generate transmission signals and a coupled local oscillator signal; the transmitting signals are transmitted in a time division manner from 8 transmitting antennas by a transmitting switch array, echo signals received by 8 receiving antennas are received in a time division manner by a receiving switch array and are respectively sent to 4 receiving channels, and meanwhile local oscillation signals are also fed to the receiving channels through a power divider; the receiving channel comprises a down-conversion circuit and an intermediate frequency signal conditioning circuit, FMCW modulation waveforms, antenna coupling leakage and part of wall clutter are filtered by using low-pass filtering, and then high-frequency noise is filtered by using a high-pass filter to improve the signal-to-noise ratio; and 4 paths of intermediate frequency signals are fed into the real-time signal acquisition and processing module, and the embedded GPU completes the information processing flow.
The equivalent receiving channels are 64, while the actual receiving channels are 4, during the operation of each transmitting antenna, the receiving switch array is switched 2 times, i.e. 16 times of scanning are completed to complete one frame imaging.
Aiming at the technical problem of aliasing of target information in two-dimensional imaging, the invention adds the micro-Doppler characteristic of human motion to accumulate and enhance the energy of a micro-motion signal, and simultaneously obtains a color enhanced visual image by using a method of coding colors by using the estimated speed values of all parts, thereby enhancing the image display of the human parts, obviously improving the aliasing phenomenon in the two-dimensional imaging, mutually distinguishing the body parts which are aliased in the two-dimensional imaging on a three-dimensional space, better separating clutter from the human parts and improving the imaging quality.
