Abstract

Systems and methods for automatically determining a noise threshold are provided. In one implementation, a system comprises: an antenna configured to gather data about a surrounding environment; a processing unit configured to remove samples representing target data from the gathered data; to estimate the noise floor from the gathered data with the removed target data; and to determine a noise threshold from the estimated noise floor; and a memory device configured to store the estimated noise floor.
