Compressive CFAR Radar Processing

چکیده
In this paper we investigate the performance of a combined Compressive Sensing (CS) Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR) radar processor under different interference scenarios using both the Cell Averaging (CA) and Order Statistic (OS) CFAR detectors. Using the properties of the Complex Approximate Message Passing (CAMP) algorithm, we demonstrate that the behavior of the CFAR processor is independent of the combination with the non-linear recovery and therefore its performance can be predicted using standard radar tools. We also compare the performance of the CS CFAR processor to that of an `1-norm detector using an experimental data set.

متن کاملCFAR Detectors for DVB-T Passive Radar in non-homogeneous scenarios
CFAR (Constant False Alarm Rate) detectors were designed and evaluated in non-homogeneous DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial) passive radar scenarios. The CA-CFAR (Cell-Averaged CFAR) is the most widespread incoherent CFAR technique. CA-CFAR detector is optimal under the assumption of homogeneous interference, but CA-CFAR performance is degraded when this assumption is not fulfilled....
