Abstract
Target pixel signals representing radar echo signals are stored in an addressable memory; and the contents of at least selected storage locations within a preset guard zone are read out of the memory. If a pixel signal of sufficient value is stored in the read out location, the presence of a target within the preset guard zone is indicated if that pixel signal is verified as being one of several which, presumably, are derived from a target.
