INTRODUCTION
• The outputs from the delay line taps are summed. This
sum, when multiplied by the appropriate constant,
determines the threshold level for achieving the desired
probability of false alarm.
• If the target echo is large, energy can spill over into the
adjacent range-resolution cells and affect the
measurement of the average background.
• Fur this reason, the range cells surrounding the test cell
are often omitted when averaging the background.
• There are several other methods for achieving CFAR
besides the use of cell averaging.
