摘要: 舰船目标长度特征对舰船目标识别具有重要作用,该文提出一种基于宽带复合双基地雷达联合观测的舰船目标长度估计方法。该方法综合利用单/双基地雷达高分辨距离像(HRRPs)长度,结合双基地雷达-舰船之间的空间关系求解,实现了单次测量估计舰船目标的实际长度,并分析了各种误差因素和几何构型条件下的估计误差。典型场景动态仿真证明了所提方法的有效性,结果表明在高分辨距离像长度误差小于5%条件下,舰船目标长度估计误差小于5%,为舰船目标特征提取与识别提供了新思路。Abstract: The length feature plays an important role in the ship target identification. A new algorithm for ship length estimation based on the joint observation of wideband composite bistatic radar is presented, which utilize the mono-/bi-static High-Resolution Range Profiles (HRRPs) and the bistatic spatial geometry relation to estimate the actual length of the ship target with only one-time measurement. Then the estimation errors under different conditions and geometrical constructions are analyzed through Monte Carlo simulations. Finally, the proposed method is validated through typical scene simulation experiments. The results show that when the error of HRRP length is less than 5%, the estimation error of the actual ship length is less than 5%, which provides a new idea for feature extraction and identification of ship targets.

次数单次测量 连续跟踪 优缺点 通过单次测量估计目标实际长度,不需估计舰船航向和舰首方向,场景适应能力更强,稳定性更好。系统结构较复杂。 通过连续跟踪估计航向,航向替代舰首方向,但舰首方向不一定为运动轨迹切线,机动转弯、逃逸等过程中相差很远,误差会很大。系统结构较简单。 -
