CFAR detector CFAR Processor Analysis The target is detected according to the following algorithm: where H1 is the hypothesis that the test resolution cell contains the echoes from the target and H0 is the hypothesis that the test resolution cell contains the randomly arriving impulse interference only. The parameter V is the noise level estimation. The constant Ta is a scale coefficient, which is determined in order to maintain a given constant false alarm rate (CFAR).
