Deinterleaving RADAR emitters with optimal transport distances

Résumé

Detection and identification of emitters provide vital information for defensive strategies in electronic intelligence. Based on a received signal containing pulses from an unknown number of emitters, this paper introduces an unsupervised methodology for deinterleaving RADAR signals based on a combination of clustering algorithms and optimal transport distances. The first step involves separating the pulses with a clustering algorithm under the constraint that the pulses of two different emitters cannot belong to the same cluster. Then, as the emitters exhibit complex behavior and can be represented by several clusters, we propose a hierarchical clustering algorithm based on an optimal transport distance to merge these clusters. A variant is also developed, capable of handling more complex signals. Finally, the proposed methodology is evaluated on simulated data provided through a realistic simulator. Results show that the proposed methods are capable of deinterleaving complex RADAR signals.
