Abstract :
The detection of slowly moving targets by air- and spaceborne MTI radar is heavily degraded by the motion-induced Doppler spread of clutter returns. Space-time adaptive processing (STAP) can achieve optimum clutter rejection via implicit platform motion compensation. The fundamentals and properties of STAP applied to air- and spaceborne MTI radar are summarised
