Abstract:

Direction of arrival (DOA) estimation of unresolved targets in monopulse radar is a difficulty in the field of tracking radar anti-jamming. Existing methods usually assume that the jamming to signal ratio (JSR) is known, which limits its application in practical radar systems. To solve the problem of DOA estimation for unresolved targets in monopulse radar in the presence of dense false signals, a method of DOA estimation of unresolved targets without JSR prior information is proposed. Firstly, the decoy DOA is estimated by clustering the dense false signals, and then the analytical expression of target DOA estimation with decoy DOA as parameter is derived. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can accurately estimate the jamming and target DOA under dense false signal decoy.

Key words: unresolved target, dense false signal, direction of arrival (DOA) estimation, monopulse radar
