Often to increase the probability of having a track that will not
later be deleted by a radar some simple logic criterion is used.
This thesis evaluates the performance of a new binary integration
technique. This technique requires M hits out of N looks with x<M
hits being consecutive. Closed form expressions for the cumulative
probability of detection are derived and Monte Carlo methods are
used to verify the results. A significant increase in the
cumulative probability of detection is shown to occur when this
type of logic is imposed. Also derived are the corresponding
confidence calculations on Rb0
- Ros (a measure of radar performance
defined as the range such that the cumulative probability of
detecting an approaching target is 0.60-0.95) for each set of
detections.
