Description

Array radar anti-noise interference method and system based on multi-unknown signal extraction
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of radar anti-interference, in particular to an array radar anti-noise interference method and system based on multi-unknown signal extraction.
Background
Modern information systems such as radar, navigation, communication and sonar realize the transmission of information and the detection, positioning, tracking, imaging and identification of target objects by the modulation, transmission and reception of electromagnetic waves or sound waves. For example, radar radiates energy into space by electromagnetic waves, detects an echo signal reflected by a target object, while suppressing unnecessary clutter, interference, noise, and the like in the background, and realizes detection, tracking, imaging, and the like of a target of interest. With the development of electronic information technology, the working environment of modern information systems is increasingly complex, and a large amount of active interference seriously hinders the normal work of the information systems. For an interference party, the suppression interference is widely applied because the generation mode is simple, the bandwidth and the carrier wave can be flexibly changed, and larger power can be transmitted, and the suppression interference has better interference effect on radars with various working modes. Noise type interference such as noise amplitude modulation and frequency modulation is one of the important forms of suppression type interference, and can enable target echoes to be completely submerged by interference, so that the detection of a target by a radar is seriously influenced.
In modern electronic warfare, improving the anti-interference capability of the radar is a key research task of scholars. At present, the modern information system generally adopts array antenna systems such as phased arrays, auxiliary channels and the like, and scholars propose various anti-interference algorithms aiming at different interferences. Most classical is Adaptive Beamforming (ABF), which can adaptively change weight vectors to make the main lobe of the antenna directional pattern in the desired signal direction and form nulls in the interference direction, and is widely used in the fields of radar, navigation, communication, sonar, ultrasonic diagnosis, seismic detection, etc.
However, when the training sample contains the desired signal, the phenomenon of cancellation of the desired signal occurs, and in practical situations, it is difficult to obtain the received data without the desired signal; adaptive beamforming requires that the steering vector of the desired signal be accurately known and, when there is a steering vector error, the desired signal is treated as interference suppression. In addition, when the interference is located in the main lobe, the adaptive beamforming method may cause the problems of directional diagram main lobe distortion and peak value shift, so that the output signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio is reduced. The scholars also propose a series of methods for suppressing the main lobe interference, such as a blocking matrix preprocessing algorithm (BMP), but need to know the angle information of the main lobe interference accurately, which is difficult to satisfy in practical situations and can lose the degree of freedom of the system. There are also feature projection preprocessing algorithms (EMPs) that also result in the loss of the desired signal when the received data contains the desired signal.
When the received data of the radar array contains the expected signal, a good anti-interference effect is achieved, and the method is not available in the existing anti-interference method.

The invention is described in detail below by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The anti-noise interference method for the array radar is characterized in that a processing flow chart is shown in figure 1, and the method comprises the following specific steps:
step 1, establishing an array radar receiving signal model;
the method is simultaneously suitable for array models with various structures such as a one-dimensional linear array, a two-dimensional area array and the like, and a signal model is constructed by taking a one-dimensional uniform linear array as an example.
Assuming that there is a uniform linear array composed of M antenna elements, the distance between each element is d, the far-field incoming wave signal is a narrow-band signal, the wavelength of the signal is λ, and the arrival angle of the signal is θ, then the steering vector of the incident signal is:

Wherein the steering matrix A (theta) = [ a (theta) = 0 ),a(θ 1 ),…,a(θ P )](ii) a Waveform S (t) = [ S ] composed of desired signal and interference 0 (t),s 1 (t),…,s P (t)] T
Step 2, estimating the number of information sources of the array receiving signals;
because the number of information sources cannot be known in actual conditions, information source number estimation needs to be carried out on received data, and the method provides an information source number estimation method based on covariance matrix eigenvalues.
Under ideal conditions, the array receive covariance matrix is

in practical cases, however, the covariance matrix can only be estimated from the snapshot data
Figure BDA0003004889960000063
Wherein K is the number of snapshots; x (n) receive signal sample values.
Performing eigenvalue decomposition on the estimated covariance matrix to obtain
Figure BDA0003004889960000064
Wherein λ is m M =1,2, \ 8230;, M is
Figure BDA0003004889960000065
And satisfies lambda 1 ≥λ 2 ≥…≥λ M Namely, the eigenvalue sequence is arranged according to the sequence from big to small; generally, the eigenvalues of the signal corresponding to interference are larger than the eigenvalues corresponding to noise.

η i =λ ii-1 ,i=1,2,…,M-1
Assume M is an even number, order

Is last M/2 eta i Mean of (2) to 1 η of the preceding M/2 i Sequentially judging whether the requirements are met from back to front
η i ≥2μ;
When M is an odd number, the value is the mean value of the difference values of the last (M-1)/2 characteristic values.
First η satisfying the above formula i The corresponding i is the estimated information source number L; l = P +1, the total number of desired signals and interference.
Step 3, extracting multiple unknown signals to obtain separation signals;
the multi-unknown signal extraction refers to the recovery of each relatively independent source signal s from the array observation signal X (t) i (t) Process.
(1) Firstly, the mean value of small eigenvalues obtained in the characteristic decomposition is used to estimate the eigenvalue corresponding to the noise, namely the noise power

the large eigenvalues remain
(2) And constructing a whitening matrix and carrying out pre-whitening processing on the received signal.

Wherein K is the number of snapshots; in receiving discrete data, τ =1 may be generally taken.
To R Z (tau) is decomposed into characteristic values
Figure BDA0003004889960000081
The obtained characteristic vector constitutes a matrix C 0 Is a linear permutation matrix of the unitary matrix C, i.e. C 0 The order of each column with C may not be the same and each column may be scaled. The Λ eigenvalues form a diagonal matrix.
(4) Obtaining a separation signal
The separation signal is:
Figure BDA0003004889960000082
wherein Y (t) = [ Y = 1 (t),y 2 (t),…,y L (t)] T Including the waveform of the separated desired signal and the waveform of the noisy disturbance.
And 4, calculating the time domain moment kurtosis and determining a signal channel.
Each channel obtained by separating the signals comprises an expected signal and noise-type interference, and the expected signal and the noise-type interference are distinguished by adopting time domain moment kurtosis. The time domain waveform after the expected signal pulse compression can have a peak value, and the time domain waveform after the noise type interference pulse compression is relatively stable, so that the signals of each separation channel are subjected to pulse compression, and the time domain moment kurtosis of the signals is calculated
Figure BDA0003004889960000083
Wherein, X is an input signal for calculating the time domain moment kurtosis, and in the embodiment of the present invention, X is a pulse compression result Y of the separated signal obtained in the previous step pc (t)=[y pc1 (t),y pc2 (t),…,y pcL (t)] T Wherein y is pcl (t) is for the l signal y l (t) as a result of the pulse compression; μ is the mean value of X; σ is the standard deviation of X.
When the noise-type interference follows gaussian distribution, the difference between the time domain moment kurtosis and 3 is within a set range (i.e. the time domain moment kurtosis is approximately equal to 3, and the difference between the time domain moment kurtosis and 3 is small), and the noise-type interference does not change greatly with the dry-to-noise ratio, and if the difference between the time domain moment kurtosis and 3 of the expected signal is greater than a set threshold (specifically, the time domain moment kurtosis is a numerical value far greater than 3), the expected signal and the interference can be distinguished, so that a signal channel is determined for later detection. Meanwhile, the approximate waveform of the interference can be obtained, and the subsequent research on the interference is facilitated. And if the difference value between the time domain moment kurtosis and 3 is within a set range, the channel is a noise type interference channel, and if the difference value between the time domain moment kurtosis and 3 is greater than a set threshold value, the channel is an expected signal channel.
The embodiment of the invention also provides an array radar anti-noise interference system based on multi-unknown signal extraction, which comprises a model construction module, an information source number estimation module, a separation signal extraction module and a signal channel determination module.

Example one
In order to verify the anti-noise type interference method for the array radar based on multi-unknown signal extraction, anti-interference processing is carried out on actual measurement data obtained by an actual radar and an interference machine. The radar array is a two-dimensional area array and is divided into 12 sub-array channels, radar transmission signals are linear frequency modulation signals, and interference transmitted by an interference machine is noise amplitude modulation type interference. The difference between the azimuth of the desired signal and the interference is 2 °, which is the main lobe interference. The experimental parameters are shown in the following table.
Table 1 experimental parameter settings
Figure BDA0003004889960000101
Figure BDA0003004889960000111
Fig. 2 is a time domain waveform and a pulse pressure waveform of a received signal before interference resistance, wherein (a) in fig. 2 is a single-channel time domain waveform of the received signal, and (b) in fig. 2 is a single-channel pulse pressure diagram of the received signal; fig. 3 shows an anti-interference signal channel time domain waveform and a pulse pressure waveform, where (a) in fig. 3 is the anti-interference signal channel time domain waveform, and (b) in fig. 3 is the anti-interference signal channel pulse pressure waveform. It can be seen that before interference rejection, the power is too low, and the desired signal is still buried by the noise-type interference after pulse compression, and cannot be detected. After interference resistance, the power of the interference is obviously weakened, the waveform of the expected signal is shown, a high peak value appears in the expected signal after pulse compression, and the expected signal can be detected by CFAR. The interference rejection ratio before and after interference resistance is calculated to be 34.8dB, and the interference resistance performance is good.
Changing the azimuth angle of the interference, keeping other parameters unchanged, carrying out CFAR detection on the signal channel subjected to interference resistance, counting the change of the detection probability and the interference rejection ratio along with the azimuth angle of the interference, and carrying out Monte Carlo simulation for 500 times. Fig. 4 is a diagram of a relationship between a detection probability and an interference azimuth, and it can be seen that, under a main lobe condition, when the interference azimuth is greater than 1.2 °, the detection probability is higher than 80%, and under a side lobe condition, the detection probability can almost reach 100%. Fig. 5 is a diagram of interference suppression ratio versus azimuth angle of interference, and it can be seen that in the main lobe condition, the interference suppression ratio gradually increases with the increase of the azimuth angle of interference, and when the azimuth angle is greater than 1 °, the interference suppression ratio is greater than 20dB, and in the side lobe condition, the interference suppression ratio can be higher than 30dB. In conclusion, the method has better anti-interference performance under the conditions of the main lobe and the side lobe.
Example two
In order to compare the performance of the method of the present invention with the performance of the conventional adaptive beamforming method, the following simulation experiment was designed: the simulation adopts a uniform linear array, and the simulation parameters are shown in the following table.
Table 2 simulation parameter settings
Figure BDA0003004889960000121
Fig. 6 is a diagram of Conventional Beamforming (CBF), adaptive beamforming with and without desired signals (ABF), and the patterns of the method of the present invention. The following table shows the output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) versus the output signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (SINR) for different interference rejection methods. For output SNR, ABF (no desired signal) and the inventive method are slightly lower than CBF because they form nulls in the main beam to suppress main lobe interference, resulting in peak shifts and hence a slight decrease in gain in the direction of the desired signal, whereas ABF (with desired signal) undergoes desired signal cancellation and hence the output SNR is lowest. For the output SINR, CBF has the lowest SINR since it has no interference suppression capability, whereas ABF (no desired signal) and the output SINR of the method of the present invention are approximately equal to the output SNR and form a deep null in the interference direction, indicating that the interference can be completely suppressed. In practical situations, the received signal often contains a desired signal, and the cancellation of the desired signal can happen by using the ABF, so in practical situations, the anti-interference performance of the method is better than that of the ABF.
TABLE 3 comparison of output SNR and output SINR for different methods
Output SNR Output SINR
CBF 32.1dB -12.4dB
No expected signal for ABF 28.7dB 28.7dB
ABF has desired signal 16.6dB 16.5dB
The method of the invention 28.6dB 28.0dB
In summary, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
