Weak Target Detection Based on Keystone Transform

ZHANG Shun sheng, ZENG Tao

Abstract:

The improvement of the capability to detect moving target with very small radar signature is usually realized by long

term accumulation. According to the design principle of conventional PD ( Pulse Doppler ) radar, target s range migration can t ex ceed
half of the range resolution cell in coherent integration time, which means that the accumulation time is restrained by target s motion.
For high range resolution radar or the radar system focusing on the detection of fast moving targets, such a restriction is difficult to sat
isfy. In this paper, a novel motion compensation method based on keystone transform is presented, which can correct range migration
without the exact value of target velocity, and as a result, make the accumulation time free of the restriction due to target motion.
Key words: weak target detection; coherent integration; keystone transform; range migration
