Abstract:

In wideband stepped-frequency radar systems, relative motions between radar and target can induce high distortions of high-resolution range profiles (HRRPs), such as range migration, shape deformation, and signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) loss. These distortions, if ignored, can lead to unacceptable performance deterioration in detection. To solve this problem, a new algorithm for detecting moving range-spread targets (RSTs) is proposed in this letter. The proposed detector utilizes the waveform contrast of the HRRP to perform both motion compensation and constant false-alarm rate target detection, and it is simple and robust even for low-SNR scenarios. Simulated experiments are carried out to verify the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed detector.
