Abstract

In the radio monitoring, electromagnetic interference diagnostics and radar detection, the electromagnetic radiation source identification (ERSI) is a key technology. A new method for ERSI was proposed. The support vector machines (SVMs) have been applied to facilitate the ERSI on the basis of the spatial characteristics of the electromagnetic radiation sources. The radiation sources were located by the triangulation method, and then their spatial characteristics were collected by a band receiver array, and converted from 3D data to 1D vector with subscripts as the inputs for the SVMs. We trained the model with these 1D vectors to enable it to identify the radiation source types with both high speed and accuracy. The identification time needs only a few seconds, which is much faster than the artificial neural networks (ANNs). The influence of parameters (e.g., noise from the ambient environment, the data collection method, the scaling method for the input data, and the penalty parameter) were discussed. The proposed method has good performance even in the noisy environments. The results were verified by a designed measurement. The proposed approach is very useful for the ERSI of unknown radiation sources in practice.
