An algorithmic approaches that can be implemented in software/firmware/hardware that filters out stable PRI patterns detected within a system that is prosecuting against radar based transmissions are disclosed. The algorithms allow downstream computing assets to concentrate their limited resources on the more complex emitter PRI pattern types. Thus, a portion (e.g., stable signals) of the pulse deinterleave and PRI identification problem is solved without requiring the more computationally expensive processing. The disclosed algorithms can be employed, for example, in electronic support measures (ESM) systems, electronic intelligence (ELINT) systems, and/or a electronic countermeasures (ECM) systems. The algorithms employ linear detection, linear regression, or a combination of linear detection and linear regression, thereby providing a "dual voting" scheme that decreases the occurrence of false positives. Other algorithmic approaches can be used as well in a multi-voting scheme that considers PRI estimates from distinct analysis types.
