Abstract

The maximum likelihood algorithm for detecting a space-extended object moving in the unknown direction has been synthesized and analyzed under conditions of a priori uncertainty with respect to intensities of its image and applicative background. The impact of a priori unknown intensities of the object image and the background on the detection characteristics was also investigated.
