The compressed sensing (CS) radar receiver based on the theory of CS has a great advantage in receiving wide-band signal and can receive high-frequency radar signal at a sampling rate far lower than the traditional receiver. However, in order to obtain the information of the target signal, the parameters of the reconstructed signal still need to be measured by conventional methods. In order to make full use of the compressed sampling and the characteristics of radar signals, this study proposed a cascading dictionary matching pursuit algorithm based on block-sparsity (BS-CDMP) to achieve fast identification and reconstruction of received signals. First, a signal-level redundant dictionary is constructed for quickly identifying the signal in which the authors are interested in. Then, they study the feasibility of cascading the signal-level redundant dictionary and the DFT basis as a whole sparsity dictionary. Finally, the block sparsity is introduced for the selection of different parts of the dictionary during greedy iteration. Experimental results show that their proposed algorithm has considerable and universal reconfiguration performance and can directly perform fast reconstruction and recognition of the target signal.

A compact CPW‐fed triple band‐notched antenna for ultra‐wide bandwidth (UWB) application is presented. By introducing an stepped impedance resonator‐defected ground structure (SIR‐DGS) and fork‐shaped stubs, three sharp notches are achieved at frequencies of 3.5, 5.68 and 7.48 GHz. The proposed antenna working from 2.8 to 11.3 GHz with a voltage standing wave ratio of <2 is demonstrated, except for the selected notched bands. The main advantage of the antenna is that the frequency of the notched band can be tuned easily in a wide frequency range. A good agreement between the measurement and the simulation was achieved. The measurements confirm that the technique introduces negligible antenna radiation pattern distortion, except at the triple‐notched frequencies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
