Abstract

This paper describes and compares three methods for detection of low RCS radar targets in heavy sea clutter using a high PRF radar. Two methods are based on auto-regressive processes, one on Karhunen-Loève decomposition. Experiments have been performed on DSTO sea clutter dataset using these methods and the results are presented in this paper.
