Radar Micro-Doppler Signature Analysis with HHT

Abstract

Radar micro-Doppler signature analysis of vibrating targets with the joint time-frequency methods can provide useful information for target detection, classification, and recognition. We employ a well-known method for nonlinear and nonstationary signals, Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) as a new approach in micro-Doppler analysis. Simulation and experimental results show that it can achieve better performance than the traditional Cohen's class time-frequency methods.
