Abstract

This paper proposes a novel method to estimate the parameters of a ballistic warhead with micromotion. First, the independent component analysis decomposes the echo signals received from the ballistic warhead into individual signals corresponding to each scatterer. Second, the one-dimensional micro-Doppler frequency trajectories are extracted from two-dimensional joint time-frequency images of decomposed individual signals. Finally, the adaptive particle swarm optimization is used to estimate the parameters that best match the mathematical model composed of unknown parameters to the one-dimensional micro-Doppler frequency trajectories. In simulations using a conical warhead model, the parameters for a ballistic warhead with micromotion are accurately estimated.
