Multicomponent Linear FM Signal Detection Based on Support Vector Clustering

Abstract

The support vector clustering (SVC) algorithm was introduced to get the number of the pinnacles in the result of the time-frequency analysis and Radon transform of the multicomponent linear FM (LFM) signal, and to fulfil the detection of the components of the LFM signal. Meanwhile, an approach called near zero mean, for reducing the point number of the input data-set for SVC, was proposed to improve the computation efficiency. And a novel cluster labeling method was developed to improve the SVC algorithm. The simulation results depict that the SVC-radon-time-frequency approach is efficient for the detection and parameter estimation of the multi-components LFM signal
