| Abstract | ||||
| ABSTRACT A radar Electronic Support Measures (ESM) system performs two functions, warning of impending emitters and surveillance to determine the radar activities. Automatic radar ESM system consists of a passive radar receiver which receives emissions from other platforms, measures the parameters of each received pulse and a deinterleaver that sorts the intercepted pulses to enable determination of the individual radar parameters. Theses parameters are compared with the stored parameters of known radars to identify the intercepted emitter type. Consequently the threat level and the optimum jamming program for the intercepted emitter could be derived. This paper proposes a new approach to deinterleave the intercepted pulses and identify their corresponding radars in one step. The proposed approach can successfully identify radars whose angles of arrival are very close. Moreover, the proposed approach can be applied as an integral part of the adaptive deinterleaving algorithm to prevent the ESM from taking actions against false radars and consequently, avoids a waste of the available resources. Computer simulation results have shown that the proposed approach can successfully deinterleave radar pulses and identify their corresponding radars. | ||||
