Abstract

An effective model on airborne radar based on clutter spectrum is proposed in this paper. According to the simulation test, the calculating speed of the proposed model is close to that of the functional level radar model, and the simulation results of the proposed model are almost the same to that of the signal level radar model. The calculated quantity of the model proposed is much less than that of the signal level radar model. The model could be mainly used in simulation system with many airborne radars. In this paper, a simplified antenna model and a clutter spectrum model are proposed. The clutter spectrum is divided into four districts. The calculated quantity is further reduced since just one district’s clutter energy will be computed. The effective model could be applied to some huge simulating systems, especially in multi-radar and multi-target scenarios where calculating speed is a significant factor.
