In this article, we propose a joint waveform based on universal filtered multicarrier (UFMC) chirp for radar jamming and communication joint systems. Modulation of radar jamming chirp signals and communication signals on different subcarrier groups in the UFMC sub-band is used to achieve the waveform design. The jamming signal in the waveform contains a frequency shift coefficient that depends on the delay time, which can effectively improve the anti-frequency hopping ability and enhance the overall jamming efficiency. Simultaneously jamming signals can provide assistance in channel estimation and equalization of communication, improving the information transmission quality of communication subsystems. We concluded through reasonable trade-off analysis that the combined weight of radar jamming and communication is closely related to the overall performance of the waveform. The simulation results show that the proposed UFMC chirp synthesized waveform has good jamming and communication performance. Software defined radio (SDR) simulation experiments demonstrated the effectiveness of this method in practical environments.

In recent years, the rapid development of deep learning technology has brought new opportunities for specific emitter identification and has greatly improved the performance of radar emitter identification. The most specific emitter identification methods, based on deep learning, have focused more on studying network structures and data preprocessing. However, the data selection and utilization have a significant impact on the emitter recognition efficiency, and the method to adaptively determine the two parameters by a specific recognition model has yet to be studied. This paper proposes a knowledge graph-driven convolutional neural network (KG-1D-CNN) to solve this problem. The relationship network between radar data is modeled via the knowledge graph and uses 1D-CNN as the metric kernel to measure these relationships in the knowledge graph construction process. In the recognition process, a precise dataset is constructed based on the knowledge graph according to the task requirement. The network is designed to recognize target emitter individuals from easy to difficult by the precise dataset. In the experiments, most algorithms achieved good recognition results in the high SNR case (10–15 dB), while only the proposed method could achieve more than a 90% recognition rate in the low SNR case (0–5 dB). The experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed method.

A joint communication jamming waveform is proposed in this study based on the FBMC- chirp. To increase the number of false targets in a single pulse period, the chirp signal is modulated to different subcarrier groups. Since the subcarriers of the FBMC-OQAM signal are orthogonal, the signals are naturally orthogonal. This allows the transmitter and receiver to be separated and achieve multiple false target jamming, allowing the CFAR threshold to be raised by about 20 dB and protecting the target from detection. The ratio of the frequency shift of the designed jamming signal to the frequency modulation depends on the delay time, making the joint signal more robust in response to jamming and resistant to frequency modulation. The use of intercepted radar signals allowed channel estimation, providing high-speed digital transmission while ensuring multi-false-target jamming. The simulation results show that the joint signal has jamming effects on the pulse Doppler radar. The proposed FBMC chirp joint waveform requires about 20 dB less jamming signal ratio than the existing method, and thus the energy saved can ensure the robust performance of the communication subsystem in the joint communication jamming system. The proposed system has excelled in communication rate and bit error rate performance, ensuring that instructions are accurately and completely transmitted while implementing effective jamming.

The data volume and computation task of MIMO radar is huge; a very high-speed computation is necessary for its real-time processing. In this paper, we mainly study the time division MIMO radar signal processing flow, propose an improved MIMO radar signal processing algorithm, raising the MIMO radar algorithm processing speed combined with the previous algorithms, and, on this basis, a parallel simulation system for the MIMO radar based on the CPU/GPU architecture is proposed. The outer layer of the framework is coarse-grained with OpenMP for acceleration on the CPU, and the inner layer of fine-grained data processing is accelerated on the GPU. Its performance is significantly faster than the serial computing equipment, and satisfactory acceleration effects have been achieved in the CPU/GPU architecture simulation. The experimental results show that the MIMO radar parallel simulation system with CPU/GPU architecture greatly improves the computing power of the CPU-based method. Compared with the serial sequential CPU method, GPU simulation achieves a speedup of 130 times. In addition, the MIMO radar signal processing parallel simulation system based on the CPU/GPU architecture has a performance improvement of 13%, compared to the GPU-only method.
