Parameter estimation method for a linear frequency modulation signal with a Duffing oscillator based on frequency periodicity

In view of the complexity of existing linear frequency modulation(LFM)signal parameter estimation methods and the poor antinoise performance and estimation accuracy under a low signal-to-noise ratio(SNR),a parameter estimation method for LFM signals with a Duffing oscillator based on frequency periodicity is proposed in this paper.This method utilizes the characteristic that the output signal of the Duffing oscillator excited by the LFM signal changes periodically with frequency,and the modulation period of the LFM signal is estimated by autocorrelation processing of the output signal of the Duffing oscillator.On this basis,the corresponding relationship between the reference frequency of the frequencyaligned Duffing oscillator and the frequency range of the LFM signal is analyzed by the periodic power spectrum method,and the frequency information of the LFM signal is determined.Simulation results show that this method can achieve high-accuracy parameter estimation for LFM signals at an SNR of-25 dB.

A TECHNIQUE FOR MEASURING THE LINEARITY OF A LINEARLY FREQUENCY-MODULATED SIGNAL

A technique for measuring the linearity of a linearly frequency-modulated continuous wave (LFM-CW) signal is presented. It uses a delay-line and a mixer to sense the slope of the output of a sweep oscillator, so that the original form of frequency function deviated from idealized linear slope is retrieved by means of spectrum analysis. Consequently,the linearity of the LFM signal is determined. The formulation is performed based on the principle that an angle-modulated signal can be approximated by an amplitude-modulated signal if the modulation coefficient is sufficiently small. To examine the validity of the procedure and to study the effect of each parameter on the accuracy of measurement, a number of computer simulations has been made. The results of simulation show that the error of the measurement is less than 2%.

针对双二进制偏移载波(double binary offset carrier,DBOC)信号在多分量线性调频(linear frequency modulation,LFM)干扰和动态环境下捕获算法缺乏的问题,提出布莱克曼窗预处理结合分数阶傅里叶变换(fractionalFouriertransform,FRFT)的干扰抑制算法以及离散多项式相位变换(discretepolynomial-phase transform,DPT)、部分匹配滤波器(partial matching filter,PMF)结合快速傅里叶变换(fast Fourier transform,FFT)加频谱校正的捕获算法。该算法首先对接收信号做布莱克曼窗预处理,抑制干扰谱线输出旁瓣,提高干扰汇聚的精确性;然后利用分级算法快速搜索信号的最优阶数,在保证精度量级的条件下减少了运算量;最后,在对应的最优阶数下做FRFT,结合干扰判断和轮询算法,逐个完成多分量LFM干扰的抑制。对干扰抑制后的信号首先利用定阶算法确定其动态阶数;然后通过DPT对动态信号做降阶处理,去除动态项;最后利用PMF-FFT加频谱校正完成DBOC信号的捕获。仿真结果表明,所提算法能够准确并完全地对三个LFM干扰分量进行逐个抑制,且抑制后的干扰分量不会对其他干扰分量的抑制造成影响。在检测概率达到1时,经过布莱克曼窗预处理后算法的信噪比比经过汉明窗预处理和经过凯塞窗预处理后算法的信噪比分别提升了4 dB和6.4 dB,比未经过预处理算法的信噪比提升了7.2 dB。此外,使用频谱校正可以突出捕获峰值,提高捕获精度。与未经频谱校正算法相比,经过频谱校正后算法的信噪比提升了1.6 dB,且能减少一定的捕获时间。

Frequency Sweep Linearization for Semiconductor Laser Using a Feedback Loop Based on Amplitude-Frequency Response

A scheme of frequency sweep linearization of semiconductor lasers using a feed-back loop based on amplitude-frequency response is demonstrated in this paper. The beat frequency signal is obtained by self-heterodyne detection. The frequency changes are converted to the envelope of beat frequency signal after amplitude-frequency response. The active frequency sweep linearization is realized by feeding envelope deviations back to the drive currents of the lasers by a feedback loop. A simulation model is built to verify this scheme by Simulink. This scheme does not need high-performance, expensive lasers, complex linearization or tedious post-processing processes, which are of great significance for related applications.

Parameter estimation of LFM signals based on time reversal

In this paper,parameter estimation of linear frequency modulation(LFM)signals containing additive white Gaussian noise is studied.Because the center frequency estimation of an LFM signal is affected by the error propagation effect,resulting in a higher signal to noise ratio(SNR)threshold,a parameter estimation method for LFM signals based on time reversal is proposed.The proposed method avoids SNR loss in the process of estimating the frequency,thus reducing the SNR threshold.The simulation results show that the threshold is reduced by 5 dB compared with the discrete polynomial transform(DPT)method,and the root-mean-square error(RMSE)of the proposed estimator is close to the Cramer-Rao lower bound(CRLB).
