Target Recognition for Ultra-Wideband Radio Fuzes Using 1D-CGAN-Augmented 1D-CNN.

Abstract

In ultra-wideband (UWB) radio fuzes, the signal processing unit's capability to rapidly and accurately extract target characteristics under battlefield conditions directly determines detonation precision and reliability. Escalating electronic warfare creates complex electromagnetic environments that compromise UWB fuze reliability through false alarms and missed detections. This study pioneers a novel signal processing architecture. The framework integrates: (1) fixed-parameter Least Mean Squares (LMS) front-end filtering for interference suppression; (2) One-Dimensional Convnlutional Neural Network (1D-CNN) recognition trained on One-Dimensional Conditional Generative Adversarial Network (1D-CGAN)-augmented datasets. Validated on test samples, the system achieves 0% false alarm/miss detection rates and 97.66% segment recognition accuracy-representing a 5.32% improvement over the baseline 1D-CNN model trained solely on original data. This breakthrough resolves energy-threshold detection's critical vulnerability to deliberate jamming while establishing a new technical framework for UWB fuze operation in contested spectra.
