Mainlobe Deceptive Jammer Suppression with FDA-MIMO Radar

摘要

Anti-jamming technique has become an increasing demand in radar systems due to the fast development of electronic countermeasures. To alleviate the extremely difficult deceptive jammer suppression problem, frequency diverse array (FDA) based multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar is devised and a sample selection based deceptive jammer suppression method is developed. The basic principle of the FDA-MIMO radar regarding its superiority in canceling the deceptive jammers is studied in detail. In order to handle the pseudorandom distribution issue of false targets within the secondary training samples, a subspace projection based sample selection method is proposed. When certain a priori knowledge of the true target is available, the time-delayed false targets can be adequately suppressed, even if the latter are in the mainlobe direction. Simulation examples demonstrate the effectiveness of our solution.
