The clutter is modeled as a spherically invariant random process (SIRP) and its texture component is range dependent (heterogeneous clutter). We suppose here that the speckle component covariance matrix is known or estimated thanks to a secondary data set. Thus, unknown parameters to be estimated are local texture values, the complex amplitudes and Doppler frequencies of all scattering centers. To do so, we use superresolution methods. The proposed detector assumes a priori knowledge on the spatial distribution of the target and has the precious property of having a constant false alarm rate (CFAR) with the assumption of a known speckle covariance matrix or by the use of frequency agility. %G English %2 https://hal.science/hal-02891989v2/document %2 https://hal.science/hal-02891989v2/file/Garello.pdf %L hal-02891989 %U https://hal.science/hal-02891989 %~ INSTITUT-TELECOM %~ ENSTA-BRETAGNE %~ ENSTA-BRETAGNE-STIC %~ TELECOM-BRETAGNE %~ ENSIETA-E3I2 %~ IMTA_ITI %~ IMT-ATLANTIQUE %~ INSTITUTS-TELECOM
