Micro-Doppler feature extraction method for vibration targets based on the segmental intrinsic chirp component decomposition

摘要

Based on the three-antenna interferometric radar system, a novel micro-Doppler feature extraction method for vibration targets is proposed in this study. First, the theory of interferometric processing of echo signal for vibration targets is introduced and explained. Second, short-time Fourier transform is conducted with the time-frequency diagram of echo signal obtained. Then, the signals received by three-antenna model are decomposed based on the segmental intrinsic chirp component decomposition. Finally, the 2D trajectory of vibration target is reconstructed and its micro-Doppler features are effectively extracted via the interferometric phase. Besides, the micro-Doppler parameters can also be estimated with the method. Two simulation experiments are conducted to validate the proposed method.
