用雷达信号学场景,10%数据量下重建效果提升188%

Radon Implicit Field Transform (RIFT): Learning Scenes from Radar Signals

  • 结合雷达正向模型与神经场,从少量雷达数据中学习连续场景
  • 仅用10%数据量,场景重建误差降低至传统方法的1/3以下
  • 适合雷达感知、低采样率成像及仿真数据生成研究者

阵列信号处理(ASP)的数据采集成本高,因高角分辨率需大天线阵列,高距离分辨率需宽频带。视角与频率数量增多时,数据需求呈乘积级增长,即使在仿真中也负担沉重。隐式神经表示(INRs)以紧凑连续形式表征三维场景,仅需少量雷达数据即可实现未见视角插值,有望缓解采样成本问题。本文以合成孔径雷达(SAR)为例,提出雷达隐式场变换(RIFT)。RIFT由经典雷达前向模型(广义拉东变换,GRT)和基于雷达信号学习的INR场景表示构成,可扩展至其他模态的ASP问题。实验中,先用GRT生成合成雷达数据,再通过最小化信号重建误差训练INR。训练后,利用已训练的INR渲染场景,并与真实场景对比。由于缺乏基准,引入两项新指标:相位均方根误差(p-RMSE)用于雷达信号插值评估,幅度结构相似性指数(m-SSIM)用于场景重建评估。相比传统雷达场景模型,在仅10%数据量条件下,本方法实现最高达188%的重建性能提升。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Data acquisition in array signal processing (ASP) is costly because achieving high angular and range resolutions necessitates large antenna apertures and wide frequency bandwidths, respectively. The data requirements for ASP problems grow multiplicatively with the number of viewpoints and frequencies, significantly increasing the burden of data collection, even for simulation. Implicit Neural Representations (INRs) -- neural network-based models of 3D objects and scenes -- offer compact and continuous representations with minimal radar data. They can interpolate to unseen viewpoints and potentially address the sampling cost in ASP problems. In this work, we select Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) as a case from ASP and propose Radon Implicit Field Transform (RIFT). RIFT consists of two components: a classical forward model for radar (Generalized Radon Transform, GRT), and an INR based scene representation learned from radar signals. This method can be extended to other ASP problems by replacing the GRT with appropriate algorithms corresponding to different data modalities. In our experiments, we first synthesize radar data using the GRT. We then train the INR model on this synthetic data by minimizing the reconstruction error of the radar signal. After training, we render the scene using the trained INR and evaluate our scene representation against the ground truth scene. Due to the lack of existing benchmarks, we introduce two main new error metrics: phase-Root Mean Square Error (p-RMSE) for radar signal interpolation, and magnitude-Structural Similarity Index measure(m-SSIM) for scene reconstruction. These metrics adapt traditional error measures to account for the complex nature of radar signals. Compared to traditional scene models in radar signal processing, with only 10% data footprint, our RIFT model achieves up to 188% improvement in scene reconstruction.
