Moving Target Indication Using the Snapshot Algorithm,

Abstract

This document is the first in a series of three describing the digital real-time 'snapshot' moving target indication (MTI) technique developed for the GEODSS project in FY75. GEODSS is a Ground-based Electro-Optical Deep Space Surveillance system for the detection of satellites at altitudes exceeding 3000 nautical miles. The purpose of this document is to describe the snapshot MTI algorithms in the context of the GEODSS system.
