Abstract
Passive radar locates the UAV target by processing the reflected signal from non-collaborative illuminators of opportunity (IOs). It will inevitably be affected by the direct-path interference and multipath interference. The conventional passive radar uses the reference channel to receive the direct-path signal as the reference signal for interference cancellation, which is complicated in hardware and susceptible to noise. However, most of the wireless signals carry the prior information used for synchronization or channel estimation, such as the preamble of WiFi signal or the CRS of LTE signal. This paper presents a passive radar system based on the specific sequence in the wireless network, which is the prior information of IOs. Firstly, we analyze the ambiguity function of several typical specific sequences and prove their feasibility as the reference signal. Then we adopt a coherent approach for interference cancellation. The system availability is proved by simulation. A 9.64 dB reduction of interference is observed.
