Abstract
The present paper deals with the selection of the echoes received by modern airborne early warning radar (AEW) systems. It is shown that the proper selection of the radar echoes to be processed can give some useful guidelines for the reduction of the degrees of freedom (DOF) of the space-time processors. This is shown to be have the potentiality of a significant impact on the detection performance. Moreover, different data selection strategies imply different trade-offs between the number of spatial and temporal DOF to achieve the best detection performance
