Detection of weak signals using fast projection algorithms

详细

The problem of detecting weak signals in complex noise situations using projection adaptive algorithms is considered. The existing algorithms are analyzed, and a novel algorithm oriented at detecting weak signals is proposed. Results of the algorithm’s operation are demonstrated in a simulated noise situation consisting of interference signals with different intensities under the assumption of their multipath propagation and scattering. The proposed algorithm is compared with the well-known classical Capon algorithm, and a significant reduction in the contact loss time as applied to a low-noise target near strong interference sources is demonstrated.
