Abstract-This paper presents an effective method for reconstructing the rotation-induced micro-Doppler from a signature corrupted by noise. Based on empirical mode decomposition (EMD), a low-pass filter is employed as its preprocessor in order to effectively extract the first chopping harmonic component of the rotation-induced microDoppler. Then the extracted component is used for reconstructing the original micro-Doppler signature in the joint time-frequency domain. Although it is difficult to interpret the time-frequency representation of the noise-corrupted signature, the reconstruction of the microDoppler enables the acquisition of related information and can be used for complementing other traditional analysis methods. By validating the applicability of the proposed method with measured jet engine modulation (JEM) signatures, we demonstrate that the reconstruction process presented in this paper is expected to be significantly helpful for radar target recongnition in real environments.
