ABSTRACT:
A method of recognizing targets and suppressing spurious signals in radar equipment, in which the surveillance area is divided, in azimuth and range, into a plurality of radar cells. The method comprises comparing the echo signal of each radar cell with a threshold value, producing a sequence of magnitude related amplitude values of echo signals in certain neighboring cells and deriving the threshold value from a value situated in a specific position in said sequence.
