Popis: Specific Emitter Identification (SEI) is the process of specifically identifying mobile transmitters by extracting unique features from the precise measurements of their emitted signals. A novel signal processing scheme with two stages is proposed for the identification of specific radar emitters. In the first stage, the received radar pulses are accurately time aligned and coherently integrated in order to increase the Signal-to-Noise (SNR) ratio. Using this technique, measurements with SNR improvements of more than 25 dB are obtained, enabling detection of subtle differences between different emitters. In the second step, Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) is used to decompose both the envelope and the instantaneous frequency of the received signal into a set of modes. Then, these mode signals are characterized by using a group of features for identification. We demonstrate highly successful identification performance with the proposed method on real radar datasets.
