Abstract

The implementation of radar CFAR-based target detection algorithm in a real-time multiprocessor environment is presented. For this purpose, a radar extractor has been developed. Two digital signal processors (DSPs), installed on a target board are used, with a PC computer as a host. The complete detection algorithm is divided into two parts and is being executed in real-time on the target board. The results of target detection are reported to the host
