Abstract
A new cross-channel interference suppression method based on the fractional Fourier transform (FRFT) is proposed to eliminate the effect due to cross-channel interference when a full-polarimetric radar adopts the opposite-slope linear frequency modulation transmit signals and de-ramping processing in the simultaneous measurement mode. The FRFT with an appropriate order is operated on the signals in the cross-interference interval. Such order is obtained via the calculation of the frequency-modulation slope of transmitted signals. The cross-channel interference is changed into sinc functions that are detected by a designed threshold and filtered out in the FRFT domain to suppress the cross-channel interference. The simulations show that the proposed method can obviously reduce the peak sidelobe levels and the integrated sidelobe levels of targets in range profiles compared with the traditional method, which is benefit to improve the detection and measurement performances of weak polarimetric scattering components. The proposed method is suitable for stable or slow-moving targets.
