Abstract:

Regarding the suppression of radar mainlobe jamming, a blind extraction method for suppressing mainlobe jamming based on maximizing the signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) is proposed. Unlike blind separation, blind extraction can extract interested components from multiple mixed signals, making it more suitable for jamming suppression in complex electromagnetic environments with multiple sources and channels. This method establishes an optimization model for maximizing SINR in the distance domain. The target echo signal is solved and extracted using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to achieve mainlobe jamming suppression. Simulation testing shows that the proposed method improves the jamming suppression effect compared to traditional blind separation jamming suppression methods. It does not require estimation of the number of sources and has lower requirements for the number of channels, making it applicable in underdetermined scenarios. Additionally, it reduces computational complexity, making it more suitable for complex electromagnetic environments.

Key words: radar anti-jamming, mainlobe jamming suppression, blind extraction, particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm
