Distance measurements of cooperative communication emitters based on LFMCW
With the goal of addressing the problem in which discrete polynomial transformation methods cannot per-form noninteger estimation in the parameter estimation of accelerating motion targets,this paper proposes two new discrete polynomial transformation algorithms:the discrete polynomial transformation method based on the RIFE al-gorithm(RDPT)and the discrete polynomial transformation method based on the Chirp-Z transformation(CDPT).The velocity and acceleration of accelerated moving targets are estimated,after which the estimation error and cal-culation amount of the two algorithms are analyzed and compared.The results show that the mean square errors of the two algorithms approached the Cramelo boundary when the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)is-20 dB.The RDPT and the three-iteration CDPT can achieve an effective estimation of arbitrary frequency with similar performance under low SNR,and both can achieve an effective estimation of speed and acceleration under low SNR.However,the calculation amount of the RDPT is much less than that of the 3-iteration CDPT.
