The performance of a mean level detector processing M-correlated consecutive sweeps is derived. Performance when sweeps are independent can be obtained simply as a special case. The background noise is assumed stationary Gaussian and pulses are fluctuating according to the Swerling I model. Results are obtained for both finite and infinite reference noise samples. It is shown that for fixed M the relative improvement over the single hit case increases when the correlation between sweeps decreases and as the probability of false alarm is kept at lower rates.
