Optimization philosophy of acquisition process by tracking radar
Abstract
This paper is concerned with an optimization design method of the acquisition process of tracking radar. First, a mathematical model describing the acquisition process is established. Then, some principles of optimizing detection threshold and a design method of the search volume for optimal acquisition are suggested. Finally, a CFAR threshold system used in radar detector is described.
