Abstract

Recently, Summed Wigner Ville Distribution-based Moving Target Detection (SWVD-MTD) has been proposed by the authors to replace the traditional Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) based MTD or conventional Wigner Ville Distribution (WVD)-based MTD[1]. SWVDMTD performance outperforms other MTD schemes with expected more hardware and speed complexity. In this paper, real time hardware design and implementation of SWVD-MTD using Field Programmable 
Gate Array (FPGA) is proposed. Comparison of implementation details of SWVD-MTD and other schemes, in terms of FPGA resources, is presented. As expected, the extra hardware complexity and speed of real time implementation is solved by using FPGA.
