提高雷达实际分辨力的波形自适应设计
首发时间:2013-04-25
摘要:雷达目标检测和跟踪中,多目标环境下系统的分辨性能是重要指标之一。本文研究了自适应设计雷达发射波形来提高雷达系统实际分辨力的问题。传统的模糊函数表征的雷达分辨力只考虑了发射波形的固有分辨能力,并没有考虑噪声等因素的影响。因此,本文提出采用雷达量测的概率密度函数之间的Kullback-Leibler(KL)散度来表征"距离"的概念,以此表示雷达系统的实际分辨力。分析表明,该分辨力不仅考虑了发射波形的因素,而且包含了量测模型以及信噪比的因素在内。基于此,本文提出了一种自适应雷达波形设计方法来提高雷达系统的实际分辨力。同时,文章分析了实际分辨力定义下如何确定目标是否可以分辨,并采用二元假设检验的误判概率作为评价实际分辨性能好坏的指标。仿真结果验证了算法的有效性,表明采用自适应发射波形可以显著提高雷达系统的实际分辨力。

Adaptive waveform design for maximizing practical resolvability of targets
Abstract:In the field of target detection and tracking, the resolvability of multiple closely located targets is a significant criterion for measuring the sensing ability of radar and other sensing systems. This paper considers the problem of adaptive radar waveform design to maximize the practical resolvability of closely located targets. Conventional ambiguity function-based radar resolution considers only the waveform, regardless of the influence of noise. However, noise greatly influences the achievable resolution as well as radar detection and tracking performance. As a result of this deficiency in conventional radar resolution, Kullback-Leibler divergence is introduced in this paper in order to quantify the "distance" between two probability density functions of radar measurements in order to represent practical radar resolution, which includes not only the effect of the waveform but also the signal-to-noise ratio and measurement model. Consequently, a new adaptive radar waveform design criterion is proposed, which aims to maximize the practical radar resolution. Moreover, whether two targets can be resolved or not is analyzed and the probability of error of the binary hypothesis testing problem is used to evaluate the practical resolvability. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive waveform design method. The error probability of the binary hypothesis testing problem shows that the adaptive waveform markedly outperforms the fixed waveform.
