Publication number: 20250138138Abstract: Radar intercept hardware is capable of receiving and storing multiple radar signals in any context including air, land, sea or space domains as radar pulse data. However, without a priori knowledge of all of the radar emitters captured by such radar interceptors, the information or intelligence that has been gathered is of little use until such radar signals are separated or deinterleaved from the radar pulse data. The present invention is directed to model-based radar signal deinterleaver systems and methods. The characteristics of known radar models, particularly pulse repetition intervals, pulse width, time of arrival and radio frequency are used by the various embodiments of the system and method of the present invention to extract out the known signals and leave the unknown or residue signals for adjudication by a subject matter expert.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 22, 2023Publication date: May 1, 2025Applicant: The United States of America, as Represented by the Secretary of the NavyInventors: Mark William Owen, Barry R.
