Abstract :
This paper presents work done on the application of Spatial Adaptive Processing (SAP) to Passive Bistatic Radar (PBR) systems. Specifically, the main goal is to analyse SAP performances in terms of interference spatial filtering and the estimation of the target´s Direction of Arrival (DoA) when using PBR systems. Multiple solutions are provided and compared in order to identify the best multichannel processing architecture. Results are shown by using real multichannel PBR data.
