This paper proposes a parity recognition of blade number and manoeuvre intention classification algorithm of rotor target based on the convolutional neural network (CNN) using micro Doppler features.Firstly,the time-frequency spectrograms are acquired from the radar echo by the short-time Fourier transform.Secondly,based on the obtained spectrograms,a seven-layer CNN architecture is built to recognize the blade-number parity and classify the manoeuvre intention of the rotor target.The constructed architecture contains a leaky rectified linear unit and a dropout layer to accelerate the convergence of the architecture and avoid over-fitting.Finally,the spectrograms of the datasets are divided into three different ratios,i.e.,20％,33％ and 50％,and the cross validation is used to verify the effectiveness of the constructed CNN architecture.Simulation results show that,on the one hand,as the ratio of training data increases,the recognition accuracy of parity and manoeuvre intention is improved at the same signal-to-noise ratio (SNR);on the other hand,the proposed algorithm also has a strong robustness: the accuracy can still reach 90.72％ with an SNR of-6 dB.
