  • Abstract
    A technique which uses maximum-likelihood estimates (MLEs) of target Doppler and target amplitude is developed for rejecting clutter residues. Multiple estimates are made and consistency checks are applied to the estimates. Simulation results indicate that for large clutter-to-noise ratios (C/N⩾55 dB) the probability of false alarm from clutter residues is reduced from 1.0 to below 0.01
