在正侧视双基地MIMO雷达中,所有杂波均位于由发射空间角频率、接收空间角频率和多普勒频率所构成的3维空间的同一个平面上。该文利用这一特性,提出一种基于投影权优化的双基地MIMO雷达杂波抑制方法。该方法首先对杂波谱坐标系进行旋转,使得杂波谱在新坐标系下的几何投影是距离独立的。然后以输出信干噪比(SINR)为代价函数对投影权进行优化,以提高杂波抑制性能。最后,通过将该非线性优化问题转换为一个半正定规划(SDP)问题,可以高效地对投影权进行求解。仿真结果表明该方法可以有效地消除杂波的距离依赖性,提高地面动目标检测性能。
In bistatic MIMO radar system, all the clutter ridges are located in the same plane of the three-dimensional space. By using this characteristic, a weighted projection optimization based range-dependent clutter suppression method is presented. The coordinates of the clutter spectra are first rotated through a special angle. Then the projection weights are optimized by maximizing the output Signal-Interference-Noise Ratio (SINR) to transform the 3-Dimensional (3D) range-dependent clutter to 2D range-independent. Furthermore, the resultant nonlinear optimization issue is reformulated as a Semi-Definite Programming (SDP) one, which can be solved very efficiently. Analysis of simulation indicate that the proposed method is easy to implement and can cancellthe range-dependent clutter effectively.
