Space-Time Adaptive Processing: Fundamentals

Abstract

In this lecture, we present the principles of space-time adaptive processing (STAP) for radar, applied to moving target indication. We discuss the properties of optimum STAP, as well as problems associated with estimating the adaptive weights not encountered with spatial-only processing (i.e. beamforming).
