In this letter, we consider the detection architecture in [1], where a track-before-detect processor elaborates the plot-lists provided on a scan-by-scan basis by the detector and plot-extractor of a radar system. We derive a novel track formation procedure in order to provide improved performance in the presence of multiple, closely-spaced targets. Numerical examples are provided to assess the detection capabilities and the accuracy in the estimation of the target position.

Abstract
In this letter, we consider the detection architecture in [1], where a track-before-detect processor elaborates the plot-lists provided on a scan-by-scan basis by the detector and plot-extractor of a radar system. We derive a novel track formation procedure in order to provide improved performance in the presence of multiple, closely-spaced targets. Numerical examples are provided to assess the detection capabilities and the accuracy in the estimation of the target position.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
