Co-Frequency Interference Suppression of Integrated Detection and Jamming System Based on 2D Sparse Recovery

Abstract

The integrated detection and jamming system employs integrated signals devoid of typical radar signal characteristics for detection and jamming. This allows for the sharing of resources such as waveform, frequency, time, and aperture, significantly enhancing the overall utilization rate of system resources. However, to achieve effective interference, the integrated waveform must overlap with the adversary radar signal within the frequency band. Consequently, the detection echoes are susceptible to the strong co-frequency direct wave generated by the adversary signals. This paper proposes a co-frequency direct wave interference suppression algorithm based on 2D generalized smoothed-l0 norm sparse recovery. The algorithm exploits a joint dictionary comprising our integrated signals and adversary signals, along with the sparsity of 2D range-Doppler maps. The direct solution of the sparse decomposition optimization problem, formulated for the entire echo matrix, enhances the target detection performance for integrated signals even in the presence of robust co-frequency direct wave interference. Furthermore, the proposed method achieves robustness to interference of varying intensities through the adaptive updating and adjustment of relevant parameters. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated through simulation and experimental results.
