A blind signal separation method for single-channel electromagnetic surveillance system

In this paper, a blind signal separation (BSS) methodology for simultaneously received multisystem frequency-overlapped signals in a single-channel (SC) electromagnetic surveillance system is proposed using fast independent component analysis (FastICA) in a dynamical embedding (DE) framework. Firstly, an appropriate DE matrix is constructed out of a series of delay vectors from the SC recording. The lag-time and the dimensional of embedding matrix setting principal are introduced in details. Next, multiple independent components (ICs) are calculated by decomposing the embedding matrix through FastICA algorithm, and ICs can be regarded as a convenient expansion basis of the original signals. Then, these ICs are projected back into the measurement space. After that, these projected ICs are classified and used for recovering the sources of interest based on their independent nature and their power density spectrum. Numerical simulation results obtained in evaluating the proposed methodology’s performance confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
