摘要
In this letter, a novel algorithm for attitude measurement based on a 3-D electromagnetic model (3-D em-model) is proposed. The 3-D em-model is established offline based on the geometric structure of the target, and it can be used to predict the scattering features at different target attitudes. In order to measure the attitude of the air target, we design a bistatic step frequency radar system. The directions of the two radars' lines of sight (LOSs) relative to the target are acquired by matching the high-resolution range profiles (HRRPs) from the target echoes to the HRRPs generated from the 3-D em-model. Since the directions of two radars' LOSs relative to the Earth are already known, the absolute attitude of the target can be acquired. The innovative contributions of this letter are as follows: 1) A comprehensive theoretical analysis of air target attitude measurement based on its own 3-D em-model is proposed; 2) the method can be applied to different kinds of air targets such as aircraft, satellite, missile, etc.; 3) the proposed attitude measurement method does not require target motion model in advance; and 4) the proposed algorithm can be applied to any kind of step frequency waveforms. Experiments using both data predicted by a high-frequency electromagnetic code and data measured in the chamber verify the validity of the method.
