Abstract:A new CFAR (constant false alarm rate) algorithm is proposed for the Blind-CFAR detector which is proposed for CFAR detection in various types of clutter. The new algorithm employs the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) method to estimate the PDF (probability density function) of clutter and thus the CFAR detection thresholds based on the samples of reference cells and some moment constraints. Performance of the new algorithm is proved to converge to the performance of the ideal detector as the numbers of the reference … Show more
