Abstract

The Fractional Fourier transform has a good energy aggregation effect for linear frequency modulation (LFM) signals commonly used in radar systems. Therefore, this paper proposes a mainlobe interference suppression method based on Fractional Fourier transform (FRFT). Firstly, the mixed radar echo signal containing main lobe interference is processed by FRFT transform with specific LFM signal characteristics, then the interference and most noise energy are removed by filtering in the FRFT domain. Finally, FRFT inverse transformation recovers the target signal. Simulation verifies the effectiveness of the algorithm.
