The performance characteristics of the cell averaging(CA), greatest of(GO), and smallest of(SO) constant false alarm rate(CFAR) processors in homogeneous environment are obtained and compared when receiving antenna diversity is employed in the pseudonoise code acquisition of direct-sequence code division multiple access (DS/CDMA) systems. From the simulation results, it is observed that the CA CFAR scheme has the best performance and the GO CFAR scheme has almost the same performance as the CA CFAR scheme in homogeneous environment. In Part 2 of this paper, the CA, GO, and SO CFAR processors for code acquisition in nonhomogeneous environment are addressed.

CR(Cognitive Radio) technology is maximized frequency reuse using unused frequency band. Conventional cooperative spectrum sensing has fixed false alarms. so all cooperative user has equal threshold. This problem is caused degradation of detection probability. so we propose and analysis the system model that false alarm differential setting through CSI(channel state information) for resonable threshold. Simulation results show improvement of detection probability.

In this paper, we propose system model to solve conventional threshold problem of using fixed false alarm for energy spectrum sensing. Spectrum sensing reliability is ensured when Secondary user have high SNR. Thus, it is not reasonable using fixed optional false alarm without considering CR user's SNR. So, we propose adaptive threshold method. adaptive threshold is decided by controling FA according to CR user's SNR.

As a sequel to Part 1, the performance characteristics of the cell averaging (CA), greatest of (GO), and smallest of (SO) constant false alarm rate (CFAR) processors in nonhomogeneous environment are obtained and compared when receiving antenna diversity is employed in the pseudonoise (PN) code acquisition of direct-sequence code division multiple access (DS/CDMA) systems. Unlike in homogeneous environment, the GO CFAR processor is observed to exhibit the best performance in nonhomogeneous environment, with the CA CFAR processor performing the second best.

Intelligent vehicles are equipped with radar sensors for collision avoidance. We present a method of suppressing mutual interference among pulse-type radars, where all the radars are standardized. We developed a method of separating the true self-reflection from the false one by controlling the pulse emission of a radar in anorhogonal ON, OFF pattern. Interference signal identified in OFF-intervals is recorded to indicate the positions of the expected ghosts in ON-intervals. PFA and PM are derived for a radar system with I-Q demodulation scheme, where Gaussian noise alone is Rayleigh-distributed and Gaussian noise plus reflected radar pulse are Rician-distributed. The value of the threshold adaptively updated in order to prevent the deterioration of PM. In the experimental result, PFA decreases by an order of 10,000, when compared with the conventional M of N majority voting method.

현재, 세계 여러나라에서 해상물표를 정확하게 탐지 및 검출하기 위한 방안으로 레이더 clutter 신호를 효과적으로 억제 및 제거하기 위한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 일반적으로 레이더 반사파에 대한 envelope 신호의 진폭는 Rayleigh 분포에 따라 변동하는 특성을 나타내지만, clutter의 진폭분포의 파라 메터가 변동하여 분포형상이 변화하면, 오경보확률(false alarm probability)에도 변화가 발생하기 때문에 오경보확률을 충분히 낮은 일정치로써 억제시켜 일정오경보확률(constant false alarm rate, CFAR)을 유지하는 처리가 필요하다.

Recently, a lot of research efforts has been directed toward spectrum sensing techniques exploiting the some characteristics of power spectrum. Among them, a sensing technique employing the maximum of power spectrum as a test statistic has appeared in the literature and its false alarm probability was also derived under the assumption that the test statistic follows the Gaussian distribution. This paper provides an exact form of the false alarm probability without using the assumption and compares it with the previous work.

In this paper, the characteristics of LFM and CW signals in active sonar environment is investigated. CA, OS and TM CFAR processors are applied to the received CW/LFM signals which are plotted in the range/doppler domain. The performances of detection are analyzed. Particularly, using the real data, we certified that the results of the experiments are identical with the theoretical performance.

In this paper, the performance on the PN code acquisition of DS/CDMA system was analyzed using the Nakagami-m probability density function considered fading environment. The equations on detection probability, $P_D$ and false alarm probability, $P_{FA}$, decision variables affecting the PN code acquisition time were derived and proved using simulation in order to analyze the performance. In conclusion, It was necessary increasing the gain of PLL for correcting phase errors and improving the acquisition performance of PN code in apply to the rake receiver.

In this paper, efficiency in the acquisition of the PN code of the DS/CDMA system was analyzed by using the Nakagami-m probability density function that can model diverse fading channels. The system considers the fading environment that inevitably exists in the mobile communications channel environment. To analyze the efficiency of the system, the equations related to detection probability PD and false alarm probability PFA required for the acquisition of the PN code were induced by using the Nakagami-m probability density function. They were verified through simulation. For the DS/CDMA system an adaptive serial search technique was applied to acquire the PN code. To correct phase error, the equations related to detection probability PD and false alarm probability PFA that influence the time to acquire codes were induced after adding the PLL to each branch of the Rake Receiver. By using an induced equation, detection probability PD and false alarm probability PFA were verified through simulation.
