Estimation of hop period and frequency hopping based on maximum entropy binarization of time-frequency maps and DL-YOLOv5s
针对低信噪比(signal-to-noise ratio,SNR)下跳周期估计和跳频频率估计误差较大的情况,提出了一种基于最大熵二值化时频图以及检测和定位(detection and localization,DL)-YOLOv5s的跳周期估计和跳频频率估计方法。首先,利用最大熵阈值分割方法结合形态学滤波对时频图进行处理,获得清晰的最大熵二值化时频图,再通过提出的DL-YOLOv5s模型对最大熵二值化时频图中的跳频信号进行检测和定位,通过增加ASPP模块和BiFPN模块,提高跳频信号的边缘和角点检测精度,并通过BOT3模块引入多头自注意力机制,提高跳频信号的定位精度,最后得到跳频信号的坐标位置,通过坐标的对照关系完成跳周期估计和跳频频率估计。实验结果表明,相较于YOLOv5s模型,提出的DL-YOLOv5s模型精确率
In response to the significant estimation errors in hop period and hop frequency under low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions
a method for hop period and hop frequency estimation based on maximum entropy binarization of time-frequency maps and a detection and localization (DL)-YOLOv5s model was proposed. Firstly
the maximum entropy thresholding method combined with morphological filtering was utilized to process the time-frequency map
resulting in a clear maximum entropy binarized time-frequency map. Then
the proposed DL-YOLOv5s model was appllied to detect and localize the hop frequency signals within the maximum entropy binarized time-frequency map. By incorporating the ASPP module and BiFPN module
the precision of edge and corner detection for hop frequency signals was enhanced. Additionally
a multi-head self-attention mechanism was introduced to improve the localization accuracy of hop frequency signals by the BOT3 module. Ultimately
the coordinates of the hop frequency signals were obtained
and through the correlation of these coordinates
the estimation of hop period and frequency was completed. The experimental results show that compared to the YOLOv5s model
the proposed DL-YOLOv5s model improves precision (
P
) by 5%
recall (
R
) by 2.2%
and the mean average precision (mAP) at 0.5 and
mAP at 0.5:0.9 by 5.1% and 4.2% respectively. In comparison to other models such as YOLOv7 and YOLOv8
the proposed DL-YOLOv5s model is smaller in size
making it more suitable for resource-constrained environments like embedded devices commonly used for frequency-hopping signal parameter estimation. Additionally
compared to traditional methods for frequency-hopping signal parameter estimation
the proposed method effectively reduces the estimation errors of hopping period and hopping frequency under low signal-to-noise ratio conditions.
