Airborne radar sub array partitioning method based on artificial bee colony algorithm

Aiming at the problem of large amount of space-time adaptive processing technology for airborne early warning radar, a sub-array partitioning method based on artificial bee colony algorithm is proposed. The method uses the maximal improvement factor of the sub-array level as the optimization criterion, and uses the artificial bee colony algorithm to search for the optimal sub-matrix division method. Firstly, the basic principle of sub-array division is introduced, and then the subarray division method of airborne early warning radar based on artificial bee colony algorithm is given in detail. The simulation analysis shows that compared with the traditional sub-matrix weighting method and the sub-array partitioning method based on genetic algorithm, the performance of the proposed space-time two-dimensional frequency response graph and improvement factor is significantly improved, and the actual performance of the current airborne early warning radar is improved. Engineering application has great reference value.
