High-frequency surface wave radar (HF SWR) plays an important role in marine stereoscopic monitoring system. Nevertheless, the congestion of external radio frequency interference (RFI) in HF band degrades its performance seriously. In this article, two novel fractional Fourier transform (FRFT)-based RFI suppression approaches are proposed. One is based on the orthogonal projection of sequences from fractional Fourier domain, and the other is based on singular value decomposition (SVD) of Hankel matrix of sequences from fractional inverse-Fourier domain. Simulation and experimental data collected by HF SWR from Wuhan University were used to test the effectiveness as well as the application condition of the proposed RFI suppression algorithms. The FRFT-based orthogonal projection algorithm is practicable for suppressing stationary RFI with unvaried carrier frequency, while the FRFT-based SVD algorithm is applicable equally for mitigating nonstationary RFI with time-varying carrier frequency or occasional duration time. The processing results may provide useful guidelines for interference suppression of HF SWR, and inspiring the further application of the FRFT-based methods for signal processing.
