Bayesian Analysis of Target Detection with Enhanced Receiver Operating Characteristic

Abstract

In the present paper we develop a Bayesian analysis of radar target detection that uses the parameters of conventional radar analysis to provide a valid prediction of target presence or absence when received signals cross or fail to cross chosen threshold values. A Positive Predictive Value parameter is added to the normal Receiver Operating Characteristic to provide information that allows the radar operator to make an informed decision in the choice of threshold.
