Primary Signal Suppression Based on Synchrosqueezed Wavelet Transform

In Specific Emitter Identification (SEI), the stability of individual features and final correct identification rate are always declined due to the influence of the primary signal with high energy on the individual features. To solve the problem above, a primary signal suppression algorithm based on synchrosqueezed wavelet transform is exploited for specific emitter identification in this paper. Firstly, a denoising method based on stationary wavelet transform is applied to preprocess the noised signal; Then, the detection and suppression of the primary signal from time-frequency distribution are developed, where root mean square error and Pearson correlation coefficient are used as numerical indicators to measure the effectiveness of the proposed primary signal suppression algorithm; Finally, a feature extraction based on box-counting dimension and a classification based on support vector machine are exploited to verify the identification performance. The simulation results show that the correct identification rate of SEI using the proposed primary signal suppression outperforms the conventional SEI with 10%, which proves the practical improvement of the proposed primary signal suppression algorithm on specific emitter identification.
