Wavelet detectors for wideband radar signals
Zhang Xiao-ping, Tian Li-Sheng, Peng Yingning · 2002
A type of detection problem of the wideband transients which are often encountered in wideband radar and sonar applications is formulated. On the basis of wavelet theory, the optimal matched detection in the time-scale domain is introduced and several detectors are developed. The mother wavelet applied in the detection is designed by the neural network we developed. The performance of the detectors is analyzed by Monte-Carlo simulation. The numerical results show that the detectors are often effective and robust.
