Intra-pulse modulation recognition under negative signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) environment is a research challenge. This article presents a robust algorithm for the recognition of 5 types of radar signals with large variation range in the signal parameters in low SNR using the combination of the Short-time Ramanujan Fourier transform (ST-RFT) and pseudo-Zernike moments invariant features. The ST-RFT provides the time-frequency distribution features for 5 modulations. The pseudo-Zernike moments provide invariance properties that are able to recognize different modulation schemes on different parameter variation conditions from the ST-RFT spectrograms. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm achieves the probability of successful recognition (PSR) of over 90% when SNR is above-5 dB with large variation range in the signal parameters: carrier frequency (CF) for all considered signals, hop size (HS) for frequency shift keying (FSK) signals, and the time-bandwidth product for Linear Frequency Modulation (LFM) signals.
