Target Localization with Jammer Removal Using Frequency Diverse Array


الملخص بالإنكليزية

A foremost task in frequency diverse array multiple-input multiple-output (FDA-MIMO) radar is to efficiently obtain the target signal in the presence of interferences. In this paper, we employ a novel low-rank + low-rank + sparse decomposition model to extract the low-rank desired signal and suppress the jamming signals from both barrage and burst jammers. In the literature, the barrage jamming signals, which are intentionally interfered by enemy jammer radar, are usually assumed Gaussian distributed. However, such assumption is oversimplified to hold in practice as the interferences often exhibit non-Gaussian properties. Those non-Gaussian jamming signals, known as impulsive noise or burst jamming, are involuntarily deviated from friendly radar or other working radio equipment including amplifier saturation and sensor failures, thunderstorms and man-made noise. The estimation performance of the existing estimators, relied crucially on the Gaussian noise assumption, may degrade substantially since the probability density function (PDF) of burst jamming has heavier tails that exceed a few standard deviations than the Gaussian distribution. To capture a more general signal model with burst jamming in practice, both barrage jamming and burst jamming are included and a two-step Go Decomposition (GoDec) method via alternating minimization is devised for such mixed jamming signal model, where the $a$ $priori$ rank information is exploited to suppress two kinds of jammers and estimate the desired target. Simulation results verify the robust performance of the devised scheme.
