Abstract

To improve the accuracy of radar ranging and positioning under complex backgrounds, a high-precision synchronization detection method for bistatic radar is proposed based on different-frequency phase processing. First, the transmit signal and receive signal are converted to radio frequency pulses by frequency conversion. Then, the transmit signal is roughly measured with a field-programmable gate array. The obtained rough signal is used as the reference signal under the control of the direct digital synthesizer frequency synthesizer. Second, the transmit signal and receive signal are each synchronized with the reference signal in a different-frequency phase detection. These detection results are used as the starting signal and stopping signal of the counter gate. Finally, all the signals are counted, and the time synchronization between the transmit signal and the receive signal is implemented by processing the counting value. The experimental results show that a time synchronization precision of 1.5 ps and a frequency stability of 6.2 × 10-13/s can be reached. This method has the advantages of a fast time response, good noise suppression, and high measurement precision and strong system reliability.
