Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to a radar signal noise reduction technology, in particular to an FMCW (Frequency-Modulated Continuous-Wave) radar signal noise reduction system and method based on a noise reduction model.
Background
FMCW radar refers to radar that transmits a continuous wave signal, the frequency of which is modulated by a particular signal. The FMCW radar mainly comprises a radio frequency front end consisting of a transmitting antenna, a receiving antenna, a power divider mixer and a frequency mixer, a triangular wave generator and a back end processing part for AD sampling and signal processing. In the use process of the radar, thermal noise and interference are phenomena which exist all the time; noise and interference can cause problems of raising detection threshold, generating false target and the like, and can seriously affect the use of radar. On one hand, the minimum detectable signal-to-noise ratio of a receiver can be reduced, and the radar detection range is increased; on the other hand, the signal-to-noise ratio is improved, so that the signal and the noise can be distinguished more obviously, and the discovery probability is improved under the condition of a certain false alarm probability, so that a weak target can be detected more easily.
The traditional denoising method is based on signal processing and statistical means, and mainly comprises FIR filtering, IIR filtering, median filtering, wavelet transformation and the like. The general steps can be summarized as follows: 1. preprocessing the radar signal according to a selected method; 2. and performing noise reduction calculation on the radar signal by using a filtering or wavelet transformation method.
The noise reduction method using conventional signal processing also has significant drawbacks: the filtering method is suitable for the condition that the overlapping of signal and noise frequency bands is very small, and can only inhibit the noise of a fixed frequency band; however, in practical situations, the frequency bands of the difference frequency signal and the noise of the FMCW radar are mixed together, and meanwhile, the frequency band of the difference frequency signal also changes along with different target positions; the filtering method cannot automatically modify the filter parameters according to the characteristics of the frequency domain distribution of the difference frequency signal, and the filtering effect is not ideal. The wavelet transform method can effectively inhibit noise and improve the signal-to-noise ratio to a certain extent, but the principle is complex, the calculation amount is large, hardware is not easy to realize, and the method is not widely applied to an FMCW radar system.
In recent years, researchers have attempted to use neural network methods to denoise FMCW radar signals. At present, two ideas exist in the field of deep learning for noise reduction of FMCW data, and the main direction is to process an RD (Range-Doppler) graph and an mD (micro-Doppler) graph obtained after radar signals are processed in an image noise reduction mode, such as a convolutional neural network or a generation countermeasure network, but the method needs to process the signals into an image format, and the use scene is limited.
