Performance Analysis of LFM Signal Parameter Estimation through FrFT Transform

Article Preview

Abstract:

The fractional Fourier transform (FrFT) used to process linearly frequency modulated (LFM) signals is applied in the differentiation and parameters estimation of LFM radar signals. The performance of the LFM signals detection and parameters estimation through FrFT are studied when the signal-noise ratio (SNR) is low. The situation is set and the demonstration routine through simulations is made so that the performance on the chirp rate estimation and the central frequency estimation of LFM signals through FrFT is tested, the time used to obtain parameter estimation results through computer simulations is compared. The simulation results demonstrate that the method through FrFT could be used to differentiate LFM radar signals and to estimate parameters of LFM radar signals when the SNR is low.
