Abstract :
Bistatic image feature-based space-time processing (BIFSTP) is proposed for effective ground moving target detection for airborne bistatic radars. Moving target detection from ground clutter using BIFSTP is performed based on the separation of target and clutter and their different features in the Doppler-angle domain without the need for clutter estimation. The proposed algorithm is simulated for typical airborne bistatic radar operation geometries.
