Typically, radar systems change the pulse repetition interval of their modulated signal in order to avoid detection. On the other hand the radar-signal detection system tries to detect the modulation pattern. The histogram or auto-correlation methods are usually used to detect the PRI pattern of the radar signal. However these methods tend to lost the sequence information of the PRI pulses. This paper proposes a PRI-sequence detection algorithm based on the finite-state machine that could detect not only the PRI pattern but also their sequence.

Monostatic sonar systems localize targets using the time information of pulse transmission and receipt. Whereas, in asynchronous bistatic sonar systems, receivers need to detect direct blast to localize targets, since a source doesn't share pulse information with receivers. In this paper, we propose a direct blast detection algorithm, which estimates PRI (Pulse Repetition Interval) of direct blast and adaptive thresholds. Experimental results show the proposed algorithm has robust direct blast detection performance in the environment where strong background noise and target signal exist.

ES (Electronic Warfare Support System) collects radar signals, and analyzes the signals about frequency, pulse width, PRI (Pulse Repetition Interval), and etc. and then ES compares analyzed result with known radar signals to identify them. But there are two disadvantage. One is that use of known radar signals is in comparing step only. The other is that calculating PRI needs many operations. In this paper proposes a parallel reference correlation algorithm that uses GPGPU (General Purpose Graphics Processing Units) and can identify what signals are in received radar signals without calculating PRI.

In this paper, we propose a new method to automatically recognize PRI modulation type of radar signal at ES(Electronic Support) in electronic singal environment. The propose method stores pattern of PRI(Pulse Repetition Interval) of radar signal and uses statistic data, which firstly classifies into 2 classes. Then the proposed method recognizes each PRI signal using statistic characteristic of PRI. We apply various 5 kinds of PRI signal such as constant PRI, jitter PRI, D&S(dwell & switch) PRI, stagger PRI, sliding PRI, etc. The result shows the proposed method correctly identifies various PRI signals.

In this paper, a novel pulse repetition interval (PRI) jittering coder based on quasi-random M-sequence codes is proposed for improvement of counter-countermeasure capability in a radar. Each of the proposed jittered 256 PRI codes has a unique code chip combination with 256 code chips, such that any set of three consequent code chips (4 pulses) from any code appears only once among the entire code chip sequences of the codes. This indicates that only 4 of received pulses are enough to determine uniquely the exact timing position of the incoming pulse train (or code chip sequence) required for counter-countermeasure, as well as the identity of the transmitted code. To prove the proposed idea experimentally, the jittered PRI coder is implemented and demonstrated.

In this paper, we propose a new method to deinterleave multi-stage stagger PRI signals of pulse radars using the electronic intelligence systems. While former algorithms were based on hardware PRI tracker only using the first deviation of the TOA of radar signals, this paper uses the first and the second deviation of TOA of radar signals and uses the PRI histogram method to deinterleave multiple PRIs of pulse radars. This algorithm can be used for deinterleaving various PRI signals at electronic intelligence systems.

Radar signal identification of electronic warfare is a technology that recognizes the pulse repetition interval (PRI) from a set of pulse description words (PDWs) generated by the signal receiver. Conventionally batch processing is widely used in which a number of PDWs are collected as a unit and identifies PRI from the batch. In this paper, we propose a feature extraction algorithm based on the streaming process. This technique does not wait to form a batch. Whenever a PDW(Pulse Description Word) is generated from the signal receiver, the streaming process tries to form a cluster of PDWs, and makes the DTOA (Difference of Time of Arrival) histogram, finds out the frame PRI based on the concentration ratio, and decides the number of stagger stages. Experiments proved that the proposed algorithm derives stable recognition results as the cluster size increases.

Generally, a radar signal is modulated and transmitted in order to avoid signal detection. In electronic warfare, the specification of a radar is recognized by analysing the received radar pulses. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to recognize the PRI (Pulse Repetition Interval) type of radar signals. This algorithm uses the autocorrelation technique applying different comparison ranges according to the PRI type. It applies a short comparison window to stable and staggered PRI, and a relatively large comparison range to jittered PRI. The experiment shows that the proposed algorithm can discriminate the PRI type of radar pulses correctly. For the more, it can find out the stagger level of staggered type of radar signals.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm to identify Wobble PRI and Sinusoidal PRI among Radar pulses. We applied not only the DTOA(Difference Time Of Arrival) concept of radar pulse signals incoming to antennas but also a rising and falling cub characteristic of those PRIs. After making a program by such algorithm, we input each 40 data to Wobble PRI's and Sinusoidal PRI's identification programs and in result, those programs fully processed the data the according to expectations. In the future, those programs can be applied to the ESM, ELINT system.

Generally, discrete-time processing is applied to the uniformly-sampled signals. But, radars emit pulse trains with irregular time instances. In this paper, we formulate the radar pulse train as a stochastic discrete-time dynamic linear model. The estimation task can be done via linear signal processing using Kalman Filter and some considerations. As a result, we can estimate the pulse repetition interval of a pulse train and predict the time instances of the next pulses to be received.
