Peak Detector

The Peak Detector is that isolates dominant target signals from data arrays via spectrum, spectrogram, or scalogram.

It extracts target candidates (local maxima/sharpest peaks) exceeding the threshold, filtering out various noise.

This function optimizes system efficiency by transferring only high-probability target candidates to subsequent tracking algorithms.

1. Principles and Detection Process

The filtering process evaluates the data array against a threshold to isolate potential targets and eliminate residual background noise.

Within these screened data arrays, the detector identifies localized local maxima that exceed their spectral or temporal neighbors.

These peak points are ultimately extracted as final target coordinates and transferred to the next interface stage.
