Doppler shift extraction of wideband signal using spectrum scaling matching

Abstract

Doppler shift is an important feature of moving targets. It can be used to extract target velocity, distance, track and other movement parameters. According to the problem of extracting Doppler shift for wideband signals with unstable line spectrum or no line spectrum, we proposed a Doppler shift extraction method for wideband signals based on spectral scaling matching. Firstly, a spectrum reference matrix corresponding to different relative Doppler shift is generated. Then, the matching degree of Doppler signal spectrum and reference matrix is measured by linear correlation coefficient. Finally, the Doppler shift of wideband signals is extracted through matching degree optimization. Simulation results show that the proposed method can extract the Doppler shift characteristics of wideband signals effectively.
