Abstract:

Interrupted transmitting and receiving (ITR) can cause false peaks in range profiles, and when the ITR of the pulse signal is conducted, the real and false peaks in the range profile may be overlapped for wideband signal. To solve this problem, a joint ITR and matched filter design method focusing on measuring the characteristics of target is proposed. First, the ITR echo characteristics of the pulse signal are discussed based on the micro-motion echo modeling of ballistic target. Then, the real range profile of target can be obtained by using the output characteristics of the unmatched filter, and the whole process of micro-motion feature extraction for rotating target is proposed. The simulation verification results show that in multi-target scenarios, the proposed method can restore the true range profile of the target, and the micro Doppler distribution obtained by intermittent echo transmission and reception is consistent with the theoretical results. The use of pulse signals for target characteristic measurement and analysis of dynamic scattering characteristics in darkrooms has certain practical application value.

Key words: interrupted transmitting and receiving (ITR), segmented pulse compression, micro-motion, range profile
