Abstract
A radar system includes a radar receiver that provides the amplitude and the angular position of a plurality of return signals. A computer forms a test function of amplitudes and angular positions of the plurality of return signals and compares the test function with a threshold value. Returns associated with a test function whose value is equal to or greater than the threshold value are determined to be targets, and those with lesser values are considered clutter.
