Abstract :
Exact expressions are derived for the ROCs of a CA-CFAR radar processor subject to both internal noise and clutter (the last one modelled as compound Gaussian). They include previously known ROCs, e.g. for ideal CFAR. The effect of finite sample size is elicited in the example of K-distributed clutter
