Abstract :
The performances of the classical video integrator and the well-known binary integrator (which can also be called an order statistics integrator) are compared with that of a new integrator, called the censored video integrator (CVI), for a Swerling II target in Gaussian noise. CVI performs sorting, censoring, and nonuniform weighted averaging. It is shown that for a Swerling II target, the added loss of CVI is always lower than the added loss of the corresponding binary integrator. CVI is also less susceptible to strong interferences
