Description
This new software tabulates the probability of detection of various types of radar targets for a wide variety of conditions. These targets may be non-fluctuating, or may fluctuate from scan-to-scan, look-to-look, or pulse-to-pulse with various density functions. The functions, known as target models, include both Swerling types, Chi-square, log-normal, Rice, generalized exponential and user-defined.
