Popis: In this paper, a novel coherent integration algorithm, i.e., two-dimensional frequency domain second-order keystone transform (FDSOKT), is proposed to detect a weak maneuvering target based on bistatic radar configuration. To eliminate range migration and Doppler frequency migration, the radar echoes are transformed into two-dimensional frequency domain firstly, and then a series of rescaling transforms, matched filter functions and compensation functions are performed respectively. With the elimination of the couplings between range frequency and azimuth frequency caused by radial velocity and acceleration, the energy of the echoes is focused in two-dimensional time domain, which improves the detection performance of weak target. In addition, to deal with Doppler ambiguity, different Doppler ambiguity cases are discussed and could be solved well. At last, some simulation experiments are provided and the effectiveness of FDSOKT is proved by the results.
