Abstract :
An adaptive detector for the case of a radar target with unknown Doppler and unknown complex amplitude in AR (autoregressive) noise of unknown parameters has been derived. The secondary data is also used to improve the detection performance. The proposed detector has the form of a detector bank. The computational load of efficient realization of this detector bank is also presented. Finally the performance of the proposed detector is evaluated using both simulated and real clutter data
