We address adaptive detection of a range-spread target or targets embedded in Gaussian
noise with unknown covariance matrix. To this end, we assume that cells (referred to in the …

We show that the Adaptive Coherence Estimator (ACE) is a uniformly most powerful (UMP)
invariant detection statistic. This statistic is relevant to a scenario appearing in adaptive array …

This paper deals with the problem of detecting a signal known up to a scaling factor in the
presence of Gaussian disturbance with unknown covariance matrix. A new detector based …

We consider adaptive detection of a Gaussian rank-one component known up to a scaling
factor buried in Gaussian noise with unknown statistics, a problem which arises when …

We consider a modern radar system which has a general antenna array configuration
consisting of primary channels with high-gain beams and reference channels with low-gain …

Since Kelly's pioneering work on GLRT-based adaptive detection, many solutions have
been proposed to enhance either selectivity or robustness of radar detectors to mismatched …

We consider the detection of unknown Gaussian signals received by an array of
uncalibrated nonidentical sensors, which is a problem that appears in radio astronomy. The …

In recent years an abundance of technical papers and books have been written on several
topics of radar signal processing. The detection of radar targets against ground and sea …

The extreme weakness of a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signal makes it
vulnerable to a wide variety of interfering signals, falling within the GNSS frequency bands …

We conduct an experimental analysis for assessing the constant false alarm rate (CFAR)
behavior of four coherent adaptive radar detectors in the presence of experimentally …
