5 Radar Detection as Hypothesis Testing Hypothesis H : The measurement is a result of interference only null Hypothesis Hypothesis H : The measurement is a combined result of interference and echoes from Targets The signals are described statistically by means of their pdfs and thus we have to employ Statistical Decision Theory. Actually we need the pdf of the Noise p c and the pdf of the Target p t : Clutter Target w Clutter + Target w+ Probability of Detection P d : Probability to correctly declare a target Probability of False Alarm P fa : Probability to declare a target when it is not present Probability of Miss P m : Probability to miss a target while it is present P m =-P d p Clutter pdf p Signal pdf p P d p Clutter pdf p c Signal+Clutter pdf p w+c P fa Mean m of Threshold T=am Mean m of Threshold T=am 5/35

With statistical fit tests or using moment matching techniques we can certify or not the validity of the distribution.
