Maximum Likelihood Angle Extractor in the Presence of Sea-Surface Multipath
Abstract
In the presence of sea-surface multipath, the standard monopulse ratio technique to extract elevation angle of target produces large bias. In this paper we propose a maximum likelihood (ML) angle extraction technique for low elevation targets above the sea surface, of known average signal strength having a Rayleigh fluctuation. The procedure is then modified for targets having unknown average signal strength. The resulting modified angle …
