ESM, Pulse Train, Matrix Operation, Clustering, Parallelism.
Clustering and identification are two time consuming jobs in the ESM systems. In this paper a new matrix-based method, MMC, is proposed for clustering pulse train. MMC is a multi-step algorithm, which in each step the sub-clusters of previous step are spitted. This division continues until there will not any dividable sub-cluster. Since all steps are similar to each other, MMC inherently can be performed in parallel manner, which is vital to obtain a real time ESM system. Also as the algorithm is matrix based, each step can be executed by a systolic array, which is the best parallel structure for matrix operations. To evaluate MMC, a radar environment is simulated. The simulation results confirm MMC.
