摘要: Shadow-feature-enhanced radar detection algorithms potentially allow the probability of target to be substantially increased when a casts shadow across region clutter beyond it. However, length is not correctly known, much potential performance gain may lost. We demonstrate method for estimating using simple fuzzy system. apply estimation shadow-feature-enhanced maximum-likelihood constant false alarm rate (ML-CFAR) detector, showing that its can greatly improved known priori.
