Abstract
Presents a processing scheme for the constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detection of extended objects embedded in non-Gaussian disturbance. The proposed receiver exploits some relevant properties of the location-scale distributions for ensuring constant false alarm against Weibull clutter. The system has been specifically conceived for operating on high-resolution SAR images where space processing (but not time processing) is allowed
