After the factors which affect the sidelobe pedestal being analyzed, a compressed sensing based algorithm for high resolution range imaging and a new minimized ll-norm criterion for motion compensation are proposed. The random hopping of the transmitted carrier frequency is converted to restricted isometry property of the observing matrix. Then practical problems of imaging model solution and signal parameter design are resolved. Due to the particularity of the proposed algorithm, two new indicators of range profile, i.e., average signal to sidelobe ratio and local similarity, are defined. The chamber measured data are adopted to testify the validity of the proposed algorithm, and simulations are performed to analyze the precision of velocity measurement as well as the performance of motion compensation. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has such advantages as high precision velocity measurement, low sidelobe and short period imaging, which ensure robust imaging for moving targets when signal-to-noise ratio is above 10 dB.展开更多

In their paper, Theorems 5 and 8 claim that k FHS sets whose maximum periodic Hamming correlation is 0 at the origin result in an LHZ FHS set based on the Cartesian product, and Proposition 4 presented an upper bound of the maximum periodic Hamming correlation of FHSs. However, their statements are imperfect or incorrect. In this paper, we give counterexamples and make corrections to them. Furthermore, based on the Cartesian product, we construct two classes of LHZ FHS sets with optimal maximum periodic partial Hamming correlation property. It is shown that new FHS sets are optimal by the maximum periodic partial Hamming correlation bound of LHZ FHS set.展开更多

However, electronic attacks in wireless systems become more and more rigorous, which poses huge challenges to the use of the number theory based and chaos theory assisted sequences. The structure of the FH sequence directly affects the performance of FH communication systems. In this paper, the novel FH sequence generation scheme is proposed with the aid of the so-called Government Standard(GOST) algorithm, which achieves a promising balance between efficiency and security. Moreover, the security performance of the proposed algorithm is analyzed, which reveals that it is more resistant to impossible differential attacks than the widely-used Data Encryption Standard(DES) algorithm. The numerical results show that the FH sequences generated by the GOST algorithm significantly outperform the ones generated by the DES algorithm and chaotic theory in terms of the randomness and complexity.展开更多
