The work presented here addresses the problem of detecting a target in passive bistatic radar (PBR) presence interference signals, including receiver noise, direct signal, multipath/clutter echoes, and interfering targets. To this end, after outlining model detection surveillance channel as composite hypothesis test, generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) is derived. Its performance expressed closed forms for both interference-alone case, probability false alarm, signal-plus-interference...
FM-based passive bistatic radars (PBRs) exploiting a single broadcasted channel suffer from time-varying detection performance due to the program content of transmitted signal as well propagation condition that channel. To circumvent this matter, it is viable idea exploit multiple channels transmitter for detection. In case, we formulate problem detecting target in presence interference signals such receiver noise, direct signal, multipath/clutter echoes and interfering targets composite...

This paper examines the problem of suppressing dynamic clutter and multitarget detection in a digital video broadcasting-terrestrial (DVB-T)-based passive bistatic radar (PBR). A two-step low-complexity suppression method is presented to attenuate nonstationary multipath/clutter multiple-frequency network. In first step, we estimate multipath signals, as orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing channel coefficients, symbolwise approach. The variation signal tracked, using complex...

We propose a computationally efficient algorithm for detection of multiple signals that also gives rough estimation their direction arrivals (DOAs). The narrowband received from uniform linear array are first filtered by set orthogonal filters, e.g., fast Fourier transformation, in order to separate the sources into spatial intervals. This transformation converts complicated multihypothesis problem source and localization binary hypothesis testing problems. For an additive white Gaussian...

In this study authors address two cooperative wideband spectrum techniques for frequency-selective frequency-non-selective fading channels in which user signals are detected over multiple bands. The signals, indices number of occupied subbands, characteristics noise variance...

This article deals with the problem of target detection in a passive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar network involving noncooperative illuminators opportunity (IOs) and geographically dispersed multichannel receivers. The signal model considers direct-path interference (DPI). We employ Rao test to solve derive closed-form detector. Then, by considering properties ambiguity functions most IO waveforms, an approximated version detector simpler form is derived. Two detectors case...
Although zero-forcing (ZF) detection is well-known for its low computational complexity in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems, it suffers from significantly poor performance. The sphere decoder (SD) method, on the other hand, achieves maximum likelihood (ML) performance yet imposes a high complexity. We propose low-complexity scheme, concatenated with SD which verifies reliability of ZF equalized observations via some predefined regions and thresholds obtained by...

Also, number evaluated so minimum MSE achieved. Here it...
The high resolution of the digital video broadcasting terrestrial (DVB‐T) signals leads to a dramatically large number observation samples in an integration time DVB‐T‐based passive radar. Hence, because computational complexity (CC), applying extensive cancellation algorithm and generalised likelihood ratio (GLR) detector seems be impractical radars. In this study, authors derive reduced GLR for radar presence clutter, interfering targets noise. proposed employs split received signal reduce...
