Author:Melebari, A; Mishra, AK; Abdul Gaffar, MYDate:Oct 2015A major challenge in radar detection is to optimize both the detection performance and computation cost. In Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR) algorithms, different detectors can be implemented like linear, square law or Bessel detectors. These ...Read more
Author:Melebari, A; Melebari, A; Alomar, W; Abdul Gaffar, MY; De Wind, R; Cilliers, Jacques EDate:Oct 2015A major challenge in radar design is to not overflow the processor with false detections. This paper investigates the performance of Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR) algorithms on maintaining a fixed false alarm rate when windowing is used ...Read more
Author:Schwegmann, CP; Kleynhans, W; Salmon, BPDate:Apr 2015The detection of ships at sea is a difficult task made more so by uncooperative ships, especially when using transponder based ship detection systems. Synthetic Aperture Radar imagery provides a means of observation independent of the ships ...Read more
