Summary:
In radar signal processing, distinction of false targets from real targets and fixing their rate in different radar environments is desirable. In this paper, performance of Improved Switching Constant False Alarm Rate (ISCFAR) in homogenous and non-homogenous environments consisting clutter and multiple targets in comparison of conventional CFAR processors is derived. The results of detection and false alarm relations of ISCFAR in all radar environments, homogenous and non-homogenous, shows the higher probability of detection with less detection loss in comparison with conventional CFAR processors. Also, simulation results confirm the achievement to an optimum detection threshold in homogenous and non-homogenous radar environment by the mentioned processor. The equations have been achieved by assuming the targets in the Swerling I and closed form.
