Distributed radar is applied extensively in marine environment monitoring. In the early days, the radar signals are identified inefficiently by operators. It is promising to replace manual radar signal identification with machine learning technique. However, the existing deep learning neural networks for radar signal identification consume a long time, owing to autonomous learning. Besides, the training of such networks requires lots of reliable time-frequency features of radar signals. This paper mainly analyzes the identification and classification of marine distributed radar signals with an improved deep neural network. Firstly, the time frequency features were extracted from signals based on short-time Fourier transform (STFT) theory. Then, a target detection algorithm was proposed, which weighs and fuses the heterogenous marine distributed radar signals, and four methods were provided for weight calculation. After that, the frequency-domain priori model feature assistive training was introduced to train the traditional deep convolutional neural network (DCNN), producing a CNN with feature splicing operation. The features of time- and frequency-domain signals were combined, laying the basis for radar signal classification. Our model was proved effective through experiments.
