Abstract

The Doppler mismatch, range migration and Doppler frequency migration (DFM) correction problem for realizing the long-time coherent integration of space moving target with high-speed manoeuvring performance in passive bistatic radar is considered. A novel method based on intra-partition range-Doppler (RD) processing is proposed, where the intra-partition RD processing is first performed to achieve the pre-accumulation of target’s energy in each partition and eliminate the Doppler mismatch. Then, the generalized keystone transform is employed to correct the range curvature. After that, the residual range walk is removed with the centre frequency of the coarse Doppler filter related to the target velocity. Furthermore, matched filtering process is carried out to compensate the DFM. The advantage of the method is that it can obtain superior coherent integration and detection performance in comparison with the existing algorithms. Numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the coherent integration and the detection performance for a high-speed target.
