Multipath Suppression and High-precision Angle Measurement Method Based on Feature Game Preprocessing

The meter-wave radar, known for its wide beamwidth, often faces challenges in detecting low-elevation targets due to interference from multipath signals. These reflected signals diminish the strength of the direct signal, leading to poor accuracy in low-elevation angle measurements. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a multipath suppression and high-precision angle measurement method. This method, based on a signal-level feature game approach, incorporates two interconnected components working together. The direct signal extractor mines the direct signal submerged within the multipath signal. The direct signal feature discriminator ensures the integrity and validity of the extracted direct signal. By continuously interacting and optimizing one another, these components suppress the multipath interference effectively and enhance the quality of the direct signal. The refined signal is then processed using advanced super-resolution algorithms to estimate the Direction of Arrival (DoA). Computer simulations have shown that the proposed algorithm achieves high performance without relying on strict target angle information, effectively suppressing multipath signals. This approach noticeably enhances the estimation accuracy of classic super-resolution algorithms. Compared to existing supervised learning models, the proposed algorithm offers better generalization to unknown signal parameters and multipath distribution models.
