Performance analysis of two structured covariance matrix estimators in compound-Gaussian clutter
نویسنده
چکیده
In this work we present a thorough performance analysis of two algorithms for estimating Toeplitz covariance matrices, the structured sample covariance matrix estimator (SCME) and the structured normalised SCME (NSCME), which are employed by adaptive radar detectors against Gaussian and compound-Gaussian clutter. Performance predictions are checked with real-life sea clutter data. ( 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Target Detection in Compound-Gaussian Clutter with Adaptive OFDM Radar
This paper mainly deals with the problem of target detection in compound-Gaussian clutter with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) radar. First, the OFDM measurement model is developed to compound-Gaussian clutter by taking advantage of frequency diversity of OFDM radar waveform and we devise a generalized likelihood rate test (GLRT) detector where the target scattering coefficien...
متن کاملOcean Clutter Modeling for Ship Detection
This work addresses the problem of covariance matrix estimation for ocean clutter modeling. For ship detection based on polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) imagery and constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detectors, accurate ocean clutter modeling is essential. The covariance matrix provides all the polarimetric information of the ocean clutter and its estimate is always involved in PolS...

This paper focuses on the possibility of combining Automatic Identification System (AIS) and High-Frequency Surface-Wave Radar (HFSWR) data for vessel detection, tracking and classification purposes. The test based on the Normalized Adaptive Matched Filter (NAMF) is applied for target detection in compound-Gaussian HF sea clutter. The unknown clutter covariance matrix is evaluated by means of t...
متن کاملComparison of GLR and Invariance
This paper addresses a target detection problem for which the covariance matrix of the unknown Gaussian clutter background has block diagonal structure. This block diagonal structure is the consequence of the target lying along a boundary between two statisticallyindependentclutter regions. Here, we design adaptive detection algorithmsusing both the generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) and invari...
