Abstract :
A distribution-free detection procedure for a multiplerange-bin radar is described. This procedure is based on the ranks of observations, but does not require elaborate equipment for rapidly ranking large amounts of data. Proposed equipment is described and analysis and results are given comparing this new procedure with certain practical (nondistribution-free) procedures. Comparisons with some "best" theoretical procedures are also given.
