Abstract

In this paper, we propose a method for recognizing ground target using dual polarization channels in millimeter waveband air-to-surface radar. First, the Push-Broom target detection method is described and the received signal is modeled considering flight-path scenario of air-to-surface radar. The scattering centers were extracted using the RELAX algorithm, which is a time domain spectral estimation technique, and the feature vector of the target was generated. Based on this, a DB for 4 targets is constructed. As a result of the proposed method, it is confirmed that the target classification rates is improved by more than 15% than the single channel using the data of the dual polarization channel.

본 논문에서는 밀리미터파대역의 공대지 레이다에서 이중 편파 채널을 활용한 지상 표적을 식별하기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 먼저 공대지 레이다의 조우 상황에서 Push-Broom 표적 탐지 방법을 설명하고 수신 신호를 모델링한다. 시간 영역 스펙트럼 추정 기법인 RELAX 알고리즘을 이용하여 산란점을 추출하고 표적의 특성 벡터를 생성하였다. 그리고 이를 기반으로 각각의 4표적에 대한 DB를 구성하였다. 제안하는 방법으로 표적 식별 시뮬레이션을 수행한 결과 이중 편파 채널의 데이터를 이용하면 단일 채널에 비해서 표적 식별률이 최대 15% 이상 높아지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
