Range migrating target detection in correlated compound-Gaussian clutter

The problem of range-migrating target detection in a compound-Gaussian clutter is studied here. We assume a target to have a range-walk of a few range cells during the coherent processing interval, when observed by wideband radar with high range resolution. Two CFAR detectors are proposed assuming different correlation properties of clutter over...

Performance Prediction of Wideband Unambiguous Target Detection in Diffuse Ground Clutter

In this paper the influence of clutter power spectrum on unambiguous radar target detection with single low pulse repetition frequency wideband waveform is analyzed. Impact of both stationary and diffuse clutter components for different signal bandwidths and coherent processing intervals (CPI) is studied. Exponential model of the ground clutter...

Unambiguous Detection of Migrating Targets with Wideband Radar in Gaussian Clutter

In this paper the problem of unambiguous moving target detection using wideband radar is considered. Doppler ambiguities, which are present in the low pulse repetition frequency mode, are transformed into ambiguous sidelobes of targets and clutter using range migration effect. However, the level of these sidelobes is typically high, such that...
