Accurate estimation of Interrupted Sampling Repeater Jamming (ISRJ) sampling duration is essential for effective radar anti-jamming. However, in complex electromagnetic environments, the simultaneous presence of suppressive and deceptive jamming, coupled with significant signal overlap in the time–frequency domain, renders ISRJ separation and parameter estimation considerably challenging. To address this challenge, this paper proposes a method utilizing the Fractional Fourier Transform (FRFT) and a Hybrid Modality Fusion Network (HMFN) for ISRJ signal separation and sampling-duration estimation. The proposed method first employs FRFT and a time–frequency mask to separate the ISRJ and target echo from the mixed signal. This process effectively suppresses interference and extracts the ISRJ signal. Subsequently, an HMFN is employed for high-precision estimation of the ISRJ sampling duration, offering crucial parameter support for active electromagnetic countermeasures. Simulation results validate the performance of the proposed method. Specifically, even under strong interference conditions with a Signal-to-Jamming Ratio (SJR) of −5 dB for deceptive jamming and as low as −10 dB for suppressive jamming, the regression model’s coefficient of determination still reaches 0.91. This result clearly demonstrates the method’s robustness and effectiveness in complex electromagnetic environments.
