Abstract

When echoes of micromotion targets are overlapping in the time-frequency (TF) domain and sampling data are missing, the decomposition of the multicomponent micro-Doppler (m-D) signals is challenging. To address this issue, this letter proposes a method for multicomponent m-D signal decomposition by iterations of the instantaneous frequencies (IFs), individual components, and complex envelopes. To initialize the IFs, the well-focused time-frequency representation (TFR) is obtained by sparse reconstruction of the incomplete data, and then the IFs of the TFR can be estimated by the short-time variational mode decomposition (STVMD) algorithm. After initialization, the IFs, individual components, and complex envelopes are updated by the intrinsic chirp component decomposition (ICCD), alternating direction method (ADMM) of multipliers, and least-square-error criterion (LSEC), respectively. Finally, the proposed method is verified by simulation and application to real data.
