摘要
A new detection algorithm based on Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm and information-theoretic criteria for a spatially distributed, range walking and rotating target during a Coherent Processing Interval (CPI) are proposed. The proposed detector is acquired by estimating signal from every range cell in each given velocity through the information-theoretic criteria and EM method and utilizing the characteristics of strong scattering cells relevant to the target's scattering geometry and the correlation of adjacent given velocities. Furthermore, Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR) property with respect to the unknown noise power is proved. Finally, experimental results for measured data of two planes illustrate that the proposed algorithm achieve a visible performance improvement comparing with conventional GLRT and non-coherent integration.
