Parameter Estimation of LFM Signals Based on Scaled Ambiguity Function

A method based on the scaled ambiguity function for parameter estimation of LFM signals under noncooperative conditions is presented. In the proposed algorithm, the scaling principle is employed to remove the linear frequency migration brought by the coupling between the time variable and the lag variable. Afterward, the Fourier transform is performed for feature extraction of LFM signals on the centroid frequency versus chirp rate plane. The method avoids centroid frequency information loss, which is almost inevitable in the Radon-ambiguity transform. Furthermore, fractional lower-order statistics and the scaled ambiguity transform are combined to improve the performance in practical impulsive noise environments. Simulation results show that the fractional lower-order scaled ambiguity transform is robust for both Gaussian and impulsive noise, and it achieves significant performance improvement in a heavy noise environment.

This paper takes an Alpha-stable distribution as the noise model to solve the parameter estimation problem of bistatic multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar system in the impulsive noise environment. For a moving target, its echo often contains a time-varying Doppler frequency. Furthermore, the echo signal may be corrupted by a non-Gaussian noise. It causes the conventional algorithms and signal models degenerating severely in this case. Thus, this paper proposes a new signal model and a novel method for parameter estimation in bistatic MIMO radar system in the impulsive noise environment. It combines the fractional lower-order statistics (FLOS) and fractional power spectrum density (FPSD), for suppressing the impulse noise and estimating parameters of the target in fractional Fourier transform domain.

The proposed algorithms can utilize more information from FrFT results, thereby achieving improvements in either accuracy or efficiency. Moreover, the simulation results revealed the validity and advantage of the proposed approach.
