Abstract :
In this paper we describe an adaptive CFAR algorithm for detection in a MIMO radar system operating in K-distributed clutter. We provide a statistical description of the signal processing and therefore we report the results in false alarm rate and detection. Moreover the incoherent algorithm taken into account is compared with a coherent way of processing the same data in order to provide a deeper understanding.
