It locates the information bits in the received data stream at receivers. To realize frame detection in the presence of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and frequency offset, a constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detector is proposed through exploitation of cyclic autocorrelation feature implied in the preamble. The frame detection can be achieved prior to bit timing recovery. The threshold setting is independent of the signal level and noise level by utilizing CFAR method. Mathematical expressions is derived in AWGN channel by considering the probability of false alarm and probability of detection, separately. Given the probability of false alarm, the mathematical relationship between the frame detection performance and EJNo of received signals is established. Ex- perimental results are also presented in accor- dance with analysis.展开更多

When the presence of non-homogeneity in CFAR reference windows is indicated by a VI-CFAR detector, a switching- CFAR detector is introduced to optimize the performance of the VI-CFAR detector in homogeneous, multiple targets and clutter edge backgrounds. The structure and parameters selection method of the SVI-CFAR detector is presented. Comparisons with classic CFAR detectors and recently proposed detectors are also given. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that SVICFAR detector maintains the good performance of the VI-CFAR detector in homogeneous and clutter edge backgrounds, while greatly improving the capacity of anti-multi targets.展开更多

The SAR image may include not only the ship targets but also the interferences such as the sea clutter,the strong reflection target,the sidelobe and so on.The conventional constant false alarm rate(CFAR) algorithm has some disadvantages,and it has not enough prior information about the size of the ships. Hence,it cannot separate the adjacent ships correctly. A comprehensive algorithm based on the modified CFAR algorithm and opening operation is presented to solve the problem,and the detection accuracy can be improved consequently. The results of SAR image illustrate the effectiveness of the method in this paper.展开更多

Therefore, a modified HOS based Time Delay Estimation (TDE) algorithm is proposed to overcome these problems. Comparing with the conventional TDE algorithms, the estimation variance is improved greatly. A typical simulation example is completed in order to test the performance of the algorithm proposed, which shows that the proposed algorithm has advantages over the traditional ones in both detection performance and computation efficiency.展开更多
