Abstract :
The Hough transform (HT) is analyzed and applied to radar weak target detection and location in this paper. The literature, in which only search radar is used, is extended to more general radar system. The theoretical analysis and experimental results used real-life radar data show that the presented method performs well in the strong clutter background, and robust to the clutter distribution.
