Abstract
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 range. The detectors' performance is studied via numerical simulations and a significant improvement over existing techniques is demonstrated.
