In Electronic Support, a receiver must monitor a wide frequency spectrum in which threatening emitters operate. A common approach is to use sensors with high sensitivity but a narrow bandwidth. To maintain surveillance over the whole spectrum, the sensor has to sweep between frequency bands but requires a scanning strategy. Search strategies are usually designed prior to the mission using an approximate knowledge of illumination patterns. This often results in open-loop policies that cannot take advantage of previous observations. As pointed out in past researches, these strategies lack of robustness to the prior. We propose a new closed loop search strategy that learns a stochastic model of each radar using predictive state representations. The learning algorithm benefits from the recent advances in spectral learning and rank minimization using nuclear norm penalization.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
