Abstract
State-of-the-art integrated circuit technology has made it feasible to implement complicated radar signal processors. One candidate for use in radar systems with heavy ground clutter and weather environments is a Two-Dimensional (2-D) CFAR Processor with clutter map. Previous work has established an analytical capability for determining processor performance. This analysis has been modified to include general Moving Target Indicators (MTI) and bimodal weather rejection filters. Specifically, results have shown that system performance is dependent on windowing function and almost independent of MTI for ground clutter only.
