Range-Doppler tracking radar against coherent ecm techniques
Hello everyone,
I aim to design a radar system with coherent tracking capability in MATLAB 2025b. As a representative scenario, I consider four aircraft approaching and receding from the radar. Among these four aircraft, two apply coherent electronic countermeasure (ECM) techniques against the radar in both the range and Doppler domains, while the remaining two do not perform coherent jamming with respect to the range–Doppler relationship.
The main objective is for the designed radar to first detect all four aircraft using its own transmitted and received signals, and to generate a target detection plot in the amplitude–time domain. Subsequently, the aircraft apply the specified jamming techniques against the radar. As a result of the jamming, the radar’s immunity to interference in terms of coherent tracking performance is evaluated, and the resulting tracking errors are presented as percentage error plots.
As an illustrative case, one of the aircraft applying coherent jamming may successfully deceive the radar, whereas the other may continue to be tracked with a certain level of tracking error. The remaining two aircraft, which do not employ coherent jamming, are expected to be identified by the radar as jamming sources, allowing the radar to reject the interference and continue tracking the true targets.
I have already developed a MATLAB code for this purpose; however, I have not been able to obtain the desired results. My primary goal is to apply different jamming parameter configurations against the radar, analyze the resulting tracking error rates, and investigate how these parameters affect the radar’s ability to maintain target tracking.
I would greatly appreciate any guidance or suggestions on how to approach this problem more effectively.Hello everyone,
