Abstract

This paper considers the problem of detecting and classifying a radar target signal and a jamming signal produced by a deception electronic counter measure (ECM) system based on a digital radio frequency memory (DRFM) device. The disturbance is modeled as a complex correlated Gaussian process. The jamming is modeled as a signal belonging to a cone whose axis is the true target signal. Two different approaches are analyzed, based on the adaptive coherent estimator (ACE) and on the generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT), yielding both to a two-block device. The performance of the two detection/classification algorithms are evaluated, analytically, when possible, and by Monte Carlo simulation.
