Abstract :
The application of optimal search and optimal detection to radar is summarized. Optimal search and optimal detection distribute limited search effort (energy and time) in the optimal manner in both space and time to maximize target detection performance and to minimize target search energy and time. A savings of several dB of power-aperture or search time is obtained for most radars.
