Adaptive Detection in Non-Stationary Interference. Part 1 and Part 2
Abstract
In this report, which consists of two parts, the problem of radar target detection in a background of non-stationary external interference is considered. The object of the analysis is to treat this problem from the point of view of statistical decision theory, and to derive a signal processing algorithm which accepts the totality of inputs on which final decision is to be based, and performs both interference suppression and target detection. It is assumed that the radar is provided with multiple RF input channels and that target-free samples, from range gates other than one in which a target is being sought, can be used for the estimation of the interference statistics. In Part I a general formulation is given and a likelihood ratio detection rule is derived.
