New clutter suppression approach for multifunction radar-radarresource management for the clutter suppression

The use of constant-false-alarm-rate (CFAR) techniques to keep false alarm rates at a suitable low level is reviewed. Radar resource management for clutter suppression, a novel approach for multifunction phased-array radar that can more effectively suppress clutter, is proposed. The results of a simulation study, which indicate the maximum permissible P_fa and the improvement of detection performance, demonstrate the effectiveness of resource management, especially when an all-neighbor filter is used
