Summary: | In accordance with the provisions of the theory of statistical decisions, an expression for the error probability of discriminating the intensities of two signals as a function of the radiometric resolution of a synthetic aperture radar is obtained. The result of observing fluctuations at the input of the processing channel over a finite interval is represented by a sequence of complex samples that are the sum of samples of uncorrelated normal noise and signal samples. This sequence is considered as a normal complex random vector with a specified normalized correlation matrix, while the processing algorithm is assumed to be given. The proposed approach is compared with known methods for determining the radiometric resolution: the heuristic method and the differential radio contrast method. The advantages of the proposed method are demonstrated. |
