Feature extraction and recognition of underwater targets were studied using a millimeter wave (mmWave) radar. The continuous wavelet transform (CWT) method showed better detection performance, and the mmWave radar accurately detected even weak water surface acoustic wave (WSAW) signals. The experiments demonstrated the potential of mmWave radar for cross-medium detection and recognition of underwater targets.
Feature extraction and recognition of underwater targets are important in military and civilian areas. This paper studied water surface acoustic wave (WSAW) detection by a millimeter wave (mmWave) radar. The mmWave-based endpoint detection method of the WSAW was introduced. Simulated results show that the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) method has a better detection performance. A 77 GHz large aperture antenna mmWave radar sensor and an underwater acoustic transmitter have been applied to conduct laboratory experiments. Still water surface experimental results verify that the CWT method has better detection capability, and the mmWave radar can accurately detect even 155 nm WSAW. Wavy water surface experimental results demonstrate the ability of the mmWave radar to analyze the time-frequency feature of the weak WSAW signal. These works indicate the potential of mmWave radar for the cross-medium detection and recognition of underwater targets.
