Multiple Mainlobe Interferences Suppression Based on Eigen-Subspace and Eigen-Oblique Projection.

When the desired signal and multiple mainlobe interferences coexist in the received data, the performance of the current mainlobe interference suppression algorithms is severely challenged. This paper proposes a multiple mainlobe interference suppression method based on eigen-subspace and eigen-oblique projection to solve this problem. First, use the spatial spectrum algorithm to calculate interference power and direction.

Mid-State Kalman Filter for Nonlinear Problems.

When tracking very long-range targets, wide-band radars capable of measuring targets with high precision at ranges have severe measurement nonlinearities. The existing nonlinear filtering technology, such as the extended Kalman filter and untracked Kalman filter, will have significant consistency problems and loss in tracking accuracy. A novel mid-state Kalman filter is proposed to avoid loss and preserve the filtering consistency.

Design and Processing Method for Doppler-Tolerant Stepped-Frequency Waveform Using Staggered PRF.

Stepped-frequency waveform may be used to synthesize a wideband signal with several narrow-band pulses and achieve a high-resolution range profile without increasing the instantaneous bandwidth. Nevertheless, the conventional stepped-frequency waveform is Doppler sensitive, which greatly limits its application to moving targets. For this reason, this paper proposes a waveform design method using a staggered pulse repetition frequency to improve the Doppler tolerance effectively.

Knowledge-Aided Doppler Beam Sharpening Super-Resolution Imaging by Exploiting the Spatial Continuity Information.

This paper deals with the problem of high cross-range resolution Doppler beam sharpening (DBS) imaging for airborne wide-area surveillance (WAS) radar under short dwell time situations. A knowledge-aided DBS (KA-DBS) imaging algorithm is proposed. In the proposed KA-DBS framework, the DBS imaging model for WAS radar is constructed and the cross-range resolution is analyzed.

Non-Cooperative Target Imaging and Parameter Estimation with Narrowband Radar Echoes.

This study focuses on the rotating target imaging and parameter estimation with narrowband radar echoes, which is essential for radar target recognition. First, a two-dimensional (2D) imaging model with narrowband echoes is established in this paper, and two images of the target are formed on the velocity-acceleration plane at two neighboring coherent processing intervals (CPIs). Then, the rotating velocity (RV) is proposed to be estimated by utilizing the relationship between the positions of the scattering centers among two images.
