Abstract

Two novel constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detectors, the And-CFAR and Or-CFAR, are proposed. The two new CFAR detectors improve the conventional Cell Averaging CFAR (CA-CFAR) and Order Statistics CFAR (OS-CFAR) by making full use of the cell information. The novel CFAR processors combine the result of the CA-CFAR and OS-CFAR to get a better detection performance. In a homogeneous background, the mathematical modals of the two new CFAR detectors are derived and the performance of them has been evaluated and compared with that of CA-CFAR and OS-CFAR.
