An approach has been proposed to detect whether the returns come from a single target or two unresolved targets. The above approach is extended from two to three unresolved targets. The simulation indicates that the detection probability under the three unresolved targets is not sure to exceed the detection probability under the two unresolved targets.展开更多

A novel algorithm is proposed to estimate the directions of two steady targets with two pulses. The algorithm has a closedform expression and its variance is derived at high signal-to-noise ratios（SNRs）. Furthermore, the pulse pair selection criterion and the estimation method with multiple pulses are given. Finally, some numerical results are shown to validate the proposed algorithm and the effect of slight target fluctuations is tested.展开更多
