Maritime Target Detection of PCL System Based on non-cooperative Pulse Radar

Accurate situational awareness of maritime targets in 24/7 is crucial for safeguarding national maritime rights and ensuring maritime safety. The basic principle of PCL system for targets detection was provided. In order to analyze the detection performance of PCL systems based on pulse radar signal, experimental research on maritime targets detection was conducted. The experimental observation scenario was selected in the urban area of Yantai and its related area. The measurement of direct path pulse signal parameters, analysis of antenna scanning characteristics and data pre-processing, PD processing, CA-CFAR detection and display correction were completed based on field measurement data.
