A radar noncoherently integrates 18 pulses, each of uniform
amplitude(the nonfluctuating case). The IF bandwidth is
100kHz.
a) If the average time between false alarms is 20 min, what must be
the signal to noise ratio per pulse (S/N)n in order to achieve a
probability od detection of 0.80?
b) what is the corresponding value of (S/N)1?
c) what would (S/N)1 be if the target cross section fluctuated according to a Swerling Case 1 model?
