Abstract :
The glint noise arising from a radar tracking system exhibits non-Gaussian statistics. Pure noise data, usually not available in online applications, are required in conventional glint identification methods. A new algorithm is presented for online glint identification using radar measurement data. Simulations show that the identified results of the proposed algorithm using measurement data are close to those using pure noise data
