Abstract
The performance of multistatic-radar binomial detectors is investigated. Although conceptually similar to the well-knwn "M-out-of-N" detector frequently considered for monostatic systems, the multistatic detector must cope with false alarms generated by target et ghosting as well as by noise threshold crossings. A procedure for deriving the detection statistics of multistatic binomial detectors ors is presented. The procedure is applied to derive the detection probabilities for a spectrum of false alarm probabilities, target densities, and numbers of radar receivers.Keywords
