Target detection is one of the important subfields in the research of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). It faces several challenges, due to the stationary objects, leading to the presence of scatter signal. Many researchers have succeeded on target detection, and this work introduces an approach for moving target detection in SAR. The newly developed scheme named Adaptive Particle Fuzzy System for Moving Target Detection (APFS-MTD) as the scheme utilizes the particle swarm optimization (PSO), adaptive, and fuzzy linguistic rules in APFS for identifying the target location. Initially, the received signals from the SAR are fed through the Generalized Radon-Fourier Transform (GRFT), Fractional Fourier Transform (FrFT), and matched filter to calculate the correlation using Ambiguity Function (AF). Then, the location of target is identified in the search space and is forwarded to the proposed APFS. The proposed APFS is the modification of standard Adaptive genetic fuzzy system using PSO. The performance of the MTD based on APFS is evaluated based on detection time, missed target rate, and Mean Square Error (MSE). The developed method achieves the minimal detection time of 4.13[Formula: see text]s, minimal MSE of 677.19, and the minimal moving target rate of 0.145, respectively.
Purpose Synthetic aperture radar exploits the receiving signals in the antenna for detecting the moving targets and estimates the motion parameters of the moving objects. The limitation of the existing methods is regarding the poor power density such that those received signals are essentially to be transformed to the background ratio. To overcome this issue, fractional Fourier transform (FrFT) is employed in the moving target detection (MTD) process. The paper aims to discuss this issue. Design/methodology/approach The proposed MTD method uses the fuzzy decisive approach for detecting the moving target in the search space. The received signal and the FrFT of the received signal are subjected to the calculation of correlation using the ambiguity function. Based on the correlation, the location of the target is identified in the search space and is fed to the fuzzy decisive module, which detects the target location using the fuzzy linguistic rules. Findings The simulation is performed, and the analysis is carried out based on the metrics, like detection time, missed target rate, and MSE. From the analysis, it can be shown that the proposed Fuzzy-based MTD process detected the object in 5.0237 secs with a minimum missed target rate of 0.1210 and MSE of 23377.48. Originality/value The proposed Fuzzy-MTD is the application of the fuzzy rules for locating the moving target in search space based on the peak energy of the original received signal and FrFT of the original received signal.
Radar echoes have emerged as a rapid technology that is utilized in a wide range of applications especially in target identification under sea-clutter background. The detection of moving targets under a sea-clutter background is still a complex task because of the entering and evacuating of targets, which is highly unpredictable and unexpectable. Because of the lack of essential information, target detection and parameter estimations have become key constraints. Besides, it is very difficult to differentiate directly the small targets from the clutter background. However, the accurate location of the target cannot be determined exactly by the existing approaches.To address such limitations, an efficient strategy is proposed in this study for recognizing the moving targets under sea-clutter background using the proposed Magnetic Ant Lion Optimization algorithm, which is derived by the integration of Magnetic Optimization and Ant Lion Optimization. However, the proposed method achieves effective performance in terms of detection rate, mean-squared error, and the missed target rate with the values of 0.988, 0.012, and 0.224 for vertical-horizontal polarity.
Precise and efficacious detection of moving targets is a prominent task in on-going synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technique. The perception of moving object allows quite significant data about the situation under observation for both surveillance and intelligence activities. The task of accurately locating moving targets against strong background clutter in minimum of time is of utmost interest in the current research area. Fractional Fourier Transform (FrFT) concentrates the energy of the required chirp signal so that it can be well separated from the chirp like noise. The proposed SAR Moving Target Detection (MTD) process is based on the combination of FrFT with the adaptive-neuro fuzzy decisive technique. The correlation among the received signal and the FrFT of the received signal are computed which maximizes the required signal energy and applied to the adaptive-neuro fuzzy decisive module that detects the target location adaptively using the fuzzy linguistic rules. The simulation is performed by changing the number of targets, different Pulse repetition intervals, antenna turn velocity, iterations and the analysis is carried out based on the metrics, like detection time, missed target rate, and Mean Square Error (MSE), proving that the proposed Adaptive-Neuro Fuzzy-based MTD process detected the object in 5.0237 secs with a minimum missed target rate of 0.1210 and MSE of 23377.48.
