Abstract
Radar tracking of aircraft targets at low elevation angles can be complicated by clutter from wind turbines, which we define to be clutter. In this paper, we study detection in a staring pulse-Doppler radar. By exploiting the second-order correlation structure of this wind-turbine clutter we derive a target detector that uses a sequence of adaptive coherence scores. The detector uses a multipulse coherence statistic consisting of an incoherent geometric average of coherently computed adaptive coherence scores. The detector compares favorably to a multipulse coherence detector that uses no modeling or estimation of the clutter.
