摘要

In this letter, we propose a modified Hough transform (HT) algorithm for radar detection by shifting the parameter space cells as well as exploiting the phase information of signal. The proposed modified HT brings 1) significant improvement of radar target detection at low signal-to-noise ratios and 2) complexity reduction of HT implementation in radar detection applications compared to the conventional HT-based methods. Simulation results are presented showing the performance gain obtained by the proposed modified HT over the conventional methods.
