Based on the emerging development of the global electronic warfare field-The cognitive electronic warfare, this paper focuses on the related technologies of the cognitive reconnaissance subsystem of the cognitive electronic warfare. Firstly, the current situation of the complex electromagnetic environment is analyzed, and the development directions of the future reconnaissance technology are suggested. Secondly, the radar reconnaissance is used to study the development of the traditional electronic reconnaissance receiver and equipment technology, combined with the traditional reconnaissance process The cognitive reconnaissance processing process is selected for identifying the known or unknown radiation source targets, and a reconnaissance subsystem system architecture and the software architecture with open, integrated and modular features are proposed.
