The invention relates to a
system utilizing CMMB (China mobile
multimedia broadcasting) signals to detect a target and a method thereof. The
system comprises a receiving antenna, an analog
chassis with a
signal simulating and receiving component, a CPCI (compact
peripheral component interconnect)
chassis with a
signal acquisition and
processing component, at least one disc array
chassis with a
signal storage component, a switchboard and a signal process for
signal processing, which are connected in sequence. The analog reception adopts a scheme of secondary mixed frequency and fixed
medium frequency; the
data acquisition adopts a scheme of medium-frequency bandpass sampling and digital down-conversion; the data storage adopts a high-speed disc array; and the data processor is used for implementing such operations as
signal reconstruction, channel correction,
direct wave suppression, digital beam formation, inter-
ambiguity function,
peak detection, constant
false alarm detection, positioning and tracking and the like, and final output of information of the target distance, speed and direction. The
system has the following advantages of no need for frequency distribution, no electromagnetic
pollution, high signal randomness, high signal interception performance, large signal bandwidth, high distance resolution, low research and maintenance cost, and high mobility.
