Abstract:

Micro-Doppler signature produced by micro-motion contains movement and structure information which is useful for radar classification and recognition. Because of the complexity and difference of micro-motion, based on non-rotor targets and rotary-wing targets, the complex motion scattering point with translation, acceleration and vibration is modeled, so is complex motion scattering point with translation, vibration, acceleration and rotation. Then their micro-Doppler modulation and difference are analyzed. By simulation, the micro-Doppler modulation induced by the two models is extracted from the radar echo with the Smoothed pseudo Winger-Ville time-frequency analysis method, which agrees well with the computed results and proves that the models and the mathematical derivation of their micro-Doppler theoretical analysis are valid.

Key words: micro-Doppler, complex motion, vibration, rotation, time-frequency analysis
