Abstract

The development of the digital radio frequency memory (DRFM) has led to the interrupted sampling repeater jamming (ISRJ) becoming increasingly popular in electronic countermeasure (ECM). It is coherent with the emitted signal and extremely limits radar target detection which significantly obstructs radar electronic countercountermeasure (ECCM). In this paper, we study the ISRJ suppression for pseudo random code continuous wave (PRC-CW) radars. First, the relationship between the ISRJ and the radar waveform is obtained by analyzing the ISRJ principle. Second, the intermittent feature of the ISRJ with matched filter sliding is discussed and used to determine the retransmitted sampled slices (RSS). Third, the jamming signal is reconstructed using the minimum residual criterion and excluded from the echo signal. In the proposed method, we make the most of the information of the jamming signal for improving the anti-ISRJ performance in the low SNR regimes. This information pertains to the amplitude of the jamming signal being considerably higher than that of the real target signal. Fourth, utilizing this characteristic of the jamming signal, we propose an improved sliding matched filter method based on the RSS reconstruction. Last, numerical simulations illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method and validation of the theoretical analysis.
