| Summary: | In the application of an airborne radar platform, the rapid relative motion between target and airborne radar induces range migration (RM) and Doppler frequency migration (DFM). The motion errors caused by airflow, air friction, and navigation inaccuracies will exacerbate the RM and DFM problems and render traditional coherent integration methods ineffective. Previously reported airborne coherent integration methods are hindered by high computational complexity, limiting their practical application. Therefore, developing motion error compensation and coherent integration methods with reduced computational complexity and a high detection performance is of critical importance. To address these challenges, a novel method based on the keystone transform, sequence-reversing autocorrelation function, and Lv’s distribution (KT-SRAF-LVD) is proposed. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a good balance between computational complexity and detection performance, indicating great potential for practical engineering applications. |
