Cylindrical array as a means of the clutter suppression via scanning acceleration and space-time signal processing

In conjunction with the problem of the target extraction from clutter with quasi-continuous radiation, the analysis of the space-time radar signal processing was performed. The analysis was performed for the case of non-isotropic array elements. The calculation results of the optimized receiving antenna pattern and the attained signal-to-noise ratio for the confirmation of the cylindrical array system efficiency at high azimuth scanning rate (i.e., scanning acceleration compared to the traditional rate values) are given.
