Abstract

Warhead and debris show the different micro-Doppler frequency shape in the spectrogram because of the different micro motion. So we can classify them using the micro-Doppler features. In this paper, we classified warhead and debris in the separation phase using CNN(Convolutional Neural Networks). For the input image of CNN, we used micro-Doppler spectrogram. In addition, to improve classification performance of warhead and debris, we applied the preprocessing using CA-CFAR to the micro-Doppler spectrogram. As a result, when the preprocessing of micro-Doppler spectrogram was used, classification performance is improved in all signal-to-noise ratio(SNR).

기두부와 단 분리 시 조각은 서로 다른 미세 운동을 하므로 스펙트로그램 상에서 미세 도플러 주파수의 형태가 서로 다르게 나타나며 이를 통해 구분이 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 합성곱 신경망(CNN : Convolutional Neural Networks)을 이용하여 기두부와 단 분리 시 조각을 구분하였다. 합성곱 신경망의 입력영상으로는 미세도플러 스펙트로그램을 사용하였다. 또한 기두부와 단 분리 시 조각의 구분성능을 향상시키기 위해 미세 도플러 스펙트로그램에 CA-CFAR(Cell Averaging-Constant False Alarm Rate)를 적용하여 전처리 과정을 수행하였다. 실험 결과, 전처리 과정을 수행하여 획득한 미세 도플러 스펙트로그램을 입력 영상으로 사용하였을 경우, 전처리 과정을 수행하지 않은 미세 도플러 스펙트로그램보다 모든 SNR환경에서 구분 성능이 향상되었다.
