倏逝场的协方差阵的秩

The Rank of the Covariance Matrix of an Evanescent Field

M. Kliger, J. M. Francos

摘要:

瞬逝随机场作为均匀随机场的2-D Wold分解的分量而出现。渐逝随机场除了具有重要的理论意义外,还有许多实际应用,例如在机载雷达数据的空时自适应处理(STAP)中对观测信号建模。本文导出了消逝随机场中有限维样本的低秩协方差阵的秩的表达式。结果表明,该协方差阵的秩完全由倏逝场光谱支持参数单独决定。因此,估计秩的问题使其自身适合于避免需要从样本协方差阵估计秩的解决方案。我们表明,这一结果可以立即应用到大大简化的STAP问题中的干扰协方差阵的秩的估计。

英文摘要:

Evanescent random fields arise as a component of the 2-D Wold decomposition of homogenous random fields. Besides their theoretical importance, evanescent random fields have a number of practical applications, such as in modeling the observed signal in the space time adaptive processing (STAP) of airborne radar data. In this paper we derive an expression for the rank of the low-rank covariance matrix of a finite dimension sample from an evanescent random field. It is shown that the rank of this covariance matrix is completely determined by the evanescent field spectral support parameters, alone. Thus, the problem of estimating the rank lends itself to a solution that avoids the need to estimate the rank from the sample covariance matrix. We show that this result can be immediately applied to considerably simplify the estimation of the rank of the interference covariance matrix in the STAP problem.
