Uwb-radar target scattering characteristic estimation method using joint low-rank and sparse characteristic

In UWB (ultra-wideband) radar imaging, there are differences in the signal scattering characteristics of targets for different frequencies. The estimation of target scattering characteristics is an important research field in target recognition and structured imaging. To solve this problem, this paper combines the target scattering characteristic estimation and super-resolution imaging into a low-rank and sparse signal reconstruction problem. It proposes an ADMM (the alternating direction algorithm of multiplier) scattering characteristic estimation algorithm based on low-rank and sparse signal. First, the echo model of UWB signal is established according to GTD model. Then build the corresponding complete dictionary. Finally, the ADMM-LS algorithm is used to solve the multi-objective joint optimization problem. Numerical simulation experiments verify the algorithm to prove the effectiveness of the proposed method.
