Description

Unmanned aerial vehicle cluster target detection and target contour and cluster scale estimation method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of radars, and particularly relates to an unmanned aerial vehicle cluster target detection and target contour and cluster scale estimation method based on radars.
Background
The cluster target is a target cluster formed by mixing a large number of individual targets with similar sizes and similar motion modes, has the characteristics of small individual, large integral scale and flexible spatial distribution time variation, can complete complex functions due to the group intelligence, and realizes the purpose of ' small ' beating ' large. Along with the development of unmanned intelligent system, unmanned aerial vehicle cluster combat will become a novel combat style. The unmanned aerial vehicle cluster is an unmanned aerial vehicle network which is composed of a plurality of small unmanned aerial vehicles and cooperatively executes unified tasks under the command or supervision of operators. The mass, low-cost and miniaturized unmanned aerial vehicle can realize the group capability far exceeding the single capability through information interaction, dynamic networking and cooperative operation, and further form an intelligent operation platform with multifunctional integration of investigation, interference, detection, attack and the like. The detection of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster and the acquisition of cluster information are necessary for judging the threat level of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster and making corresponding counter measures.
At present, the research on the detection of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster is less, and most of the research is directed to the detection of a single unmanned aerial vehicle, such as radar, radio, photoelectric detection and the like. The radar-based single unmanned aerial vehicle detection technology is mature, so that the cluster target, particularly the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster target, can be detected through the radar. However, the number of the cluster targets is large, the distribution is dense, the movement of the individual in the cluster has high autonomy, the cluster structure is variable, and the increase and decrease of the cluster individuals are involved. Therefore, the traditional detection means for a single unmanned aerial vehicle is no longer applicable, and a radar detection method for dealing with the cluster target needs to be found.
Document Fast and robust super-resolution DOA estimation for UAV swarms (Tianyuan Yang et al, Signal Processing, No. 11 of 2021, pages 1-37) proposes a super-resolution DOA estimation algorithm for unmanned aerial vehicle clusters, and performs DOA estimation on a single target in a cluster by a mesh-free sparse technology, so as to obtain an angle estimation value of each target. However, the method is based on the spectrum estimation theory, needs a large amount of fast beats (namely, long accumulation time) and has higher calculation complexity; the document "array radar monopulse group target resolution method" (royal bin and bin, and the like, modern radar, 9 th in 2021, pages 6-13) proposes an adaptive monopulse group target resolution method, which uses array radar monopulse angle measurement technology to resolve group targets, but the method needs known number of targets, and can only be used for double-target and triple-target scenes, and has large limitation; CN111580093A discloses a radar system for detecting drone swarm targets, but does not describe a specific signal processing algorithm.
The method only solves the problem of cluster target resolution in some special scenes, has respective limitations, and does not consider the acquisition of information such as the number of the cluster targets, the cluster outline and the like.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the problems in the prior art, the invention provides a method for detecting the cluster target of an unmanned aerial vehicle and estimating the target contour and the cluster scale.
The technical scheme of the invention is as follows: a man-machine cluster target detection method comprises the following steps:

s2, in order to distinguish the cluster target in the distance dimension, a transmitting terminal transmits a Linear Frequency Modulation (LFM) signal with a large time-width bandwidth product, a matched filter is generated based on the transmitted LFM signal, distance dimension echo waves are subjected to pulse compression processing, and the resolution of the distance dimension is improved to the degree that the distance dimension is not limited
Figure BDA0003564270350000021
B is the bandwidth of a transmitting signal, c is the speed of light, and a distance dimension super-resolution result S' (R, theta) is obtained through pulse compression;
s3, in order to obtain more accurate resolution of the cluster target, scattering coefficient distribution of the cluster target on the azimuth dimension needs to be obtained, and the scattering coefficient distribution obtained by directly solving the deconvolution is ill-conditioned. Considering the airspace sparsity of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster target and the low rank of the airspace background clutter, and converting the l of the azimuth dimension echo matrix1Norm and nuclear norm as regularized constraint terms under which solution is performed
Figure BDA0003564270350000022
H (theta) is an antenna directional diagram modulation function with an independent variable of an angle theta, S (theta) is an azimuth dimension echo at each distance, an optimal value is solved through iteration, inherent ill-conditioned performance of deconvolution is limited, azimuth dimension scattering center distribution u (theta) of the cluster target is solved, and then a two-dimensional super-resolution result u (R, theta) of the cluster target is obtained;
and S4, setting a proper false alarm rate and a proper reference window length, and performing Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR) detection on the super-resolution result to preliminarily obtain a detection result of the cluster target, wherein the detection result comprises a false target point brought by noise and clutter.
S5, in order to better detect a cluster target point and simultaneously inhibit the influence of noise and clutter, a group of neighborhood parameters (epsilon, MinPts) are set by utilizing the dense distribution characteristic of the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster, wherein epsilon represents the set minimum target distance in the cluster and is used for describing the cluster density; MinPts represents the minimum number of targets within a cluster and is used to describe the cluster size. And using the group of neighborhood parameters to perform clustering processing based on space density on the CFAR detection result, eliminating false alarm points generated by noise or clutter in the CFAR process, and detecting a cluster target point.
Based on the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster target detection method, the invention also provides an unmanned aerial vehicle cluster target contour and cluster scale estimation method, which further comprises the following steps:
s6, in order to obtain estimation of cluster scale and contour and better correspond to a cluster target, polar angle sorting is carried out on the cluster target points detected in the step S5, all points are traversed, the boundary target points of the clusters are finally found by continuously updating stack elements of the boundary points, the points are sequentially connected to obtain boundary information of the clusters, contour estimation of the cluster target is completed, then statistics is carried out on the number of targets in the clusters under the contour, and estimation of the cluster scale is completed by combining the contour information of the clusters.
Further, the modeling process of the cluster target in step S1 is:

where n is the number of targets in the cluster, umIs the scattering coefficient of the mth target, h (t) is the antenna pattern modulation function with time t as the independent variable, rect () is a rectangular window function, taumIs the distance dimension time delay of the mth target, fcIs the carrier frequency of the radar transmitted signal, T is the time width of the radar transmitted pulse, and k is the chirp rate of the radar transmitted chirp signal.
Consider t ═ theta-thetam)/ω,τ=2R/c,τm=2R(θm)/c,fcC/λ, wherein θmIs the angle of the mth target with respect to the normal direction of the antenna, ω is the antenna scanning speed, R (θ)m) Is the distance from the mth target to the radar, λ is the wavelength of the radar transmission signal, and after the frequency hopping processing, equation (1) becomes:
Figure BDA0003564270350000032
further, the result of the step S2 on the distance dimension pulse compression is:
Figure BDA0003564270350000033
further, the step S3 is to process the distance-dimensional pulse compression result in the azimuth dimension, and the azimuth-dimensional echo at each distance can be represented as:
Figure BDA0003564270350000034
changing equation (4) to a convolution form and considering the noise effect, the azimuth-dimension echo can be expressed as:
S(θ)=u(θ)*h(θ)+n(θ) (5)
wherein u (theta) is the distribution of the scattering coefficient of the target in the azimuth dimension, h (theta) is the modulation function of the antenna directional diagram, and n (theta) is noise.
Due to the ill-conditioned nature of deconvolution, the azimuthal distribution u (θ) of the target cannot be obtained by direct convolution inversion from equation (5). Considering the space domain sparsity of target distribution and the low rank of space domain background in the cluster scene of the unmanned aerial vehicle, and converting the l of the azimuth dimension echo matrix1And the norm and the nuclear norm are used as constraint terms, and iterative solution of target orientation dimensional distribution is completed based on a regularization theory so as to eliminate the influence caused by the ill-conditioned property of deconvolution. Using this method, the super-resolution result in the azimuth dimension can be expressed as:

The method utilizes the prior knowledge that the positions of false alarm points generated by noise or clutter are random and irrelevant to a cluster target, sets MinPts to be 10 in order to distinguish the cluster target points from the false alarm points generated by the noise or the clutter, simultaneously utilizes the dense distribution characteristic of the cluster target to set epsilon to be a smaller value, performs noise application space clustering based on density on all CFAR detection points, and detects cluster target points.
It should be noted that, in the step S6, all the detected cluster target points P are required to be detectedi(R, θ), i is 1,2, …, N is put into the same coordinate system, and the point with the smallest ordinate is found first, and this point is defined as P1With P1And (3) as an original point, carrying out polar angle sequencing on all points, wherein the sequencing rule is as follows: the number of the connecting line with small included angle with the positive direction of the abscissa is small, and if the included angles are the same, the distance P is1The number of the last is small; after finishing the sequence P1、P2、PNThese three points must be points on the cluster envelope; from P2The points sequentially traverse all the points, and two points at the top of the stack are taken each time and connected into a straight line to be connected with the current point PiBy comparison, if PiStack directly on the left of the line if PiAt the right side of the straight line, a point at the top of the stack is popped out, and a line formed by connecting two points in the stack and the P are continuously takeniComparison until PiOn the left side of the line, PiStacking, after all the points are traversed, the remaining points in the stack are the boundary points of the cluster, and the cluster boundary points are used for stackingThe boundary information of the clusters is obtained by sequential connection, so that the estimation of the cluster outline can be obtained; and then counting the number of targets in the cluster under the contour, and finishing the estimation of the cluster scale by combining the contour information of the cluster.
