Abstract

In this paper is researched the effectiveness of Hough detector with different types of Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR) processors working in the presence of randomly arriving impulse interference. We have studied the detection probability and the average decision threshold of a Hough detector with these types of CFAR processors. The experimental results are obtained by numerical analysis. They reveal that the use of Hough detector allows reducing drastically detectability losses in comparison to the conventional CFAR detectors and that it is effective for small signalto- noise ratios. The research work is performed in MATLAB computational environment. The obtained analytical results for Hough detector can be used in both, radar and communication receiver networks.
