The ability to detect small targets in sea clutter is still an ongoing challenge, even for modern
radar systems. Over the past decade, the development of new radar waveforms and signal …

Sea clutter is one of the main limiting factors influencing the target detection performance of
nautical radars. The physical mechanism of sea clutter is complex with an abundance of …

In order to effectively detect moving targets in heavy sea clutter, the micro-Doppler (mD)
effect is studied and an effective algorithm based on short-time fractional Fourier transform …

In this paper, we propose a novel phased-array track before detect (TBD) filter for tracking
multiple distributed (extended) targets from impulsive observations. Since the targets are …

A statistical model for high-resolution sea clutter, which we have called the compound
inverse Gaussian (CIG) distribution, is proposed. The model is a mixture of the Rayleigh …

In this article, we propose optimum and near-optimum adaptive coherent detectors of radar
targets in compound-Gaussian clutter with generalized inverse Gaussian texture (CG-GIG …

One of the key requirements of a radar system is to detect targets against the background
interference. This can be a challenging problem in the maritime domain when the sea …

In this article, a novel range ambiguous cluter suppression method, ie, alternating azitmuth
phase coding (AAPC), based on azimuth phase coding (APC) is proposed, where the blind …

This study is concerned with the characterisation of Doppler spectra from high range
resolution X‐band radar sea clutter observed from an airborne platform over the range of …

For radar modeling and simulation of sea clutter, there are a number of key characteristics
used to describe the observed features. These include the mean backscatter power …
