Abstract :
This paper presents a concept of the simple robustification of correlation detector in the noise radar. The simulation results show that it is possible to increase the radar sensitivity in the non-Gaussian (impulsive noise) environment by several dB using nonlinear signal processing. Suggested method introduces only moderate losses (0.5-1.5 dB) in the case where input noise is purely Gaussian.
