Abstract
Jamming is a big threat to radar system survival and anti-jamming is a part of the solution. The classification of radar jamming signal is the first step toward to anti-jamming. Recently, as an important part of deep learning, convolutional neural network (CNN) based methods have shown their capability in discriminant feature extraction and accurate classification. In this study, in order to harness the powerfulness of deep learning, CNN based methods are proposed to classify radar jamming signal acting on pulse compression radar. Specifically, a 1D-CNN is designed for radar jamming signal classification under the condition of sufficient training samples. Furthermore, due to the fact that the collection of sufficient training samples is time-consuming and expensive, a CNN-based siamese network is proposed for radar jamming signal classification to deal with the issue of limited training samples. The experimental results with sufficient and limited training samples show that the CNN-based classification methods obtain good classification performance in terms of classification accuracy and show a huge potential for radar jamming signal classification.
