ADAPTIVE-ROBUST METHODS OF RADAR-INERTIAL TRACKING OF AIR OBJECTS WITH INTERFERING REFLECTIONS QUASI-CONTINUOUS LFM- RADIATION

Abstract

Methods are proposed aimed at increasing the noise immunity, accuracy and efficiency of multipurpose active autotracking of air objects under conditions of intensive maneuvering, powerful interfering reflections, false targets and rare radar “interrogations” of objects. The methods are based on adaptive-robust control procedures for quasi-continuous chirp radiation and integrated processing of radar and inertial measurements. Quantitative results are presented that confirm the effectiveness of adaptive-robust tracking of objects under typical conditions and parameters of an aviation pulse-Doppler radar with a phased antenna array.
