description | The micro-Doppler signal generated by the rotors of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) contains the structural features and motion information of the target, which can be used for detection and classification of the target, however, the standard STFT has the problems such as the lower time-frequency resolution and larger error in rotor parameter estimation, an FRFT (Fractional Fourier Transform)-FSST (STFT based synchrosqueezing)-based method for micro-Doppler signal detection and parameter estimation is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the FRFT is used in the proposed method to eliminate the influence of the velocity and acceleration of the target on the time-frequency features of the echo signal from the rotors. Secondly, the higher time-frequency resolution of FSST is used to extract the time-frequency features of micro-Doppler signals. Moreover, the specific solution methodologies for the selection of window length in STFT and the estimation of rotor parameters are given in the proposed method. Finally, the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed method for target detection and rotor parameter estimation are verified through simulation and measured data. |
