A non-myopic scheduling method of radar sensors for maneuvering target tracking and radiation control

In decades,the battlefield environment is becoming more and more complex with plenty of electronic equipments.Thus,in order to improve the survivability of radar sensors and satisfy the requirement of maneuvering target tracking with a low probability of intercept,a non-myopic scheduling is proposed to minimize the radiation cost with tracking accuracy constraint.At first,the scheduling problem is formulated as a partially observable Markov decision process(POMDP).Then the tracking accuracy and radiation cost over the future finite time horizon are predicted by the posterior carmer-rao lower bound(PCRLB) and the hidden Markov model filter,respectively.Finally,the proposed scheduling is implemented efficiently by utilizing the branch and bound(B&B) pruning algorithm.Simulation results show that the performance of maneuvering target tracking was improved by the improved interacting multiple model(IMM),and the scheduler time and maximum memory consumption were significant reduced by the present B&B pruning algorithm without losing the optimal solution.

Design and research of signal-level airborne electronic reconnaissance simulation system

Airborne passive electronic reconnaissance equipment has developed rapidly during recent years.However,because of its expensive and unavailable military features,the simulation realization of these equipment needs to be solved.And the smaller the simulation particle is,the better the simulation system will be.In this study,a signal-level airborne electronic reconnaissance simulation system was built.Mathematical model and simulation realization of each part are introduced in this study.Focusing on the shortness of traditional signal sorting methods,we creatively proposed a presorting method based on the Euclidean distance inside signal flows.Simulation results show that the presorting method based on Euclidean distance successfully reduced the pressure on main sorting and appeared good for signal sorting.Simulation test results of each model built in this study are also shown in the study.This study provides a new thought on the realization of airborne electronic reconnaissance equipment and benefits the development of electronic countermeasure.

A reliability evaluation method for embryonic cellular array based on Markov status graph model

Due to the limitations of the existing fault detection methods in the embryonic cellular array(ECA), the fault detection coverage cannot reach 100%. In order to evaluate the reliability of the ECA more accurately, embryonic cell and its input and output(I/O) resources are considered as a whole, named functional unit(FU). The FU fault detection coverage parameter is introduced to ECA reliability analysis, and a new ECA reliability evaluation method based on the Markov status graph model is proposed.Simulation experiment results indicate that the proposed ECA reliability evaluation method can evaluate the ECA reliability more effectively and accurately. Based on the proposed reliability evaluation method, the influence of parameters change on the ECA reliability is studied, and simulation experiment results show that ECA reliability can be improved by increasing the FU fault detection coverage and reducing the FU failure rate. In addition, by increasing the scale of the ECA, the reliability increases to the maximum first, and then it will decrease continuously. ECA reliability variation rules can not only provide theoretical guidance for the ECA optimization design, but also point out the direction for further research.

Anti-follower jamming wide gap multi-pattern frequency hopping communication method

This paper deals with the follower jamming(FJ)resistance for the frequency hopping(FH)communication system over additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN)channel.Conventional FH systems are susceptible to be jammed by FJ,and multi-pattern frequency hopping(MPFH)has good resistance to FJ.To further improve the FJ rejection capability of MPFH,we propose a wide gap multi-pattern frequency hopping(WGMPFH)scheme.WGMPFH uses channels to represent messages,and the data channel and complementary channel are hopping on orthogonal frequency slots according to wide gap FH patterns.The transmitted signal lures FJ to aim at the data channel and the complementary channel is away from FJ by adopting wide gap frequency patterns.FJ does not affect the complementary channel but increases the signal energy in the data channel,thus the effect of FJ is reduced.Its bit error rate(BER)is derived under FJ and the effects of three FJ parameters(tracking success probability,jamming duration ratio and jamming bandwidth ratio)on the BER performance of WGMPFH are investigated versus the co nventional FH/BFSK and MPFH system.Numerical and simulation results show that when under the worst-case FJ,the proposed WGMPFH outperforms the MPFH by about 1-3 dB and outperforms the conventional FH/BFSK by more than 4 dB.The proposed WGMPFH shows superior jamming rejection performance under FJ especially in severe signal-to-jamming ratio(SJR).

Embryonic array configuration optimization method based on reliability and hardware consumption

Embryonic Array(EA) with different configuration methods will directly affect its reliability and hardware consumption. At present, EA configuration design is lack of quantitative analysis method. In order to reasonably optimize EA configuration design, an EA configuration optimization design method is proposed, which is based on the constraints of EA hardware consumption and reliability. Through the analysis of EA working process and composition, quantitative analysis of EA reliability and hardware consumption are completed. Based on the constraints of EA hardware consumption and reliability, the mathematical model of EA configuration optimization design is established, which transfers EA configuration optimization design into an integer nonlinear programming model problem. According to the difference of the fitness value of individual waiting for mutation in population, adaptive mutation operator and crossover operator are selected, and a novel Modified Adaptive Differential Evolution(MADE) algorithm is proposed,which is used to solve EA configuration optimization design problem. Simulation experiments and analysis indicate that the MADE is able to effectively improve the speed, accuracy and stability of algorithm. Moreover, the proposed EA configuration optimization design method can select the most reasonable EA configuration design, and play an important guiding role in EA optimization design.
